Welcome to Stanhope. A safe neighborhood. A place for families.
William Wooler is a family man, on the surface. But he’s been having an affair, an affair that ended horribly this afternoon at a motel up the road. So when he returns to his house, devastated and angry, to find his difficult nine-year-old daughter, Avery, unexpectedly home from school, William loses his temper.
Hours later, Avery’s family declares her missing.
Suddenly Stanhope doesn’t feel so safe. And William isn’t the only one on his street who’s hiding a lie. As witnesses come forward with information that may or may not be true, Avery's neighbors become increasingly unhinged.
Who took Avery Wooler?
Nothing will prepare you for the truth.
APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
A child’s abduction tears at the seams of suburban normalcy in Shari Lapena’s engrossing domestic thriller. When precocious nine-year-old Avery goes missing, everyone fears the worst, but the police investigation becomes twisted and confusing when a train wreck of dysfunctional relationships—and the mixed feelings that seemingly everyone has about the missing girl—complicate the narrative. As she proved with her bestseller The Couple Next Door, Lapena has a gift for turning comfy suburban neighborhoods into twisty mazes of lies and betrayals. We love how each new character she introduces finds a way to shock us with the dark truth hiding behind a squeaky-clean facade. Effective time management is a must, because once you’ve started Everyone Here Is Lying, there’s no stopping until the last page.
Customer Reviews
Needs more
This book needs a sequel. The daughter is a psychopath and we need a book of her life as a adult. The book left me hanging.
Ending a bit unsatisfying
Awesome story but I wished to see more of the consequences play out in the end. Definitely worth the listen/read if you’re a fan of Lapena or the domestic mystery and suspense genre. She always keeps the twists coming.
Boring
Tried to be edgy with the problem child theme predictable
