As the story continues you will get drawn deeper in the lives, lies and secrets.

This book contains quite a few flashbacks to Huntley’s childhood, particularly with her mother. It’s very nice to get to see these moments and they progress the story well. However as is the theme with a mystery they do manage to raise more questions than they answer.


I was not prepared for the ending and am still upset months later, still eagerly awaiting the release of The Dauntless in October.

Despite this I would still 100% recommend the book, however if you’ve got this far you are probably hooked like I am and don’t need a recommendation.

Amazing First Book!!!!
What if you have the perfect life, the perfect wife and the perfect child - then, in one shattering moment, you discover nothing is as it seems? What if your whole life was based on LIES?

I received and ARC version of this book and all I can say is it's and amazing first book for this author! I literally could not put this book down (except to take care of family needs here and there) and finished it within the day. So many twists and turns that will literally leave your turning the pages to delve deeper and deeper into the storyline. Highly recommend!

Liane Moriarty’s Australian backdrop is ‘Tranquillum House’, a remote health retreat that promises total transformation. Each of the nine strangers has some reason for attempting to unload some mental baggage and relaxing away from the modern world. They relinquish their mobile phones and laptops, cutting themselves off from the outside. A different kind of therapy is administered by the austere manager and what unravels is an unusual twist on Moriarty’s narrative, yet it’s totally entertaining. There’s a level of chaos and farce, mixed with darker elements that make this a compelling read. Not at all like the famous, ‘Big, Little Lies’ but more ‘Truly, Madly, Guilty’ in its delivery. Available in hardback now, paperback in April 2019.
