Bloody hell!
I knew from the second I finished the previous book, that I’d drop everything and jump right into book 2 of this incredible series. I may have mentioned before this series is just made for binge-reading and I’m thrilled to bits that a break in my otherwise hectic schedule gave me the opportunity to do exactly that!
One month after events in “Spare Me The Truth”, a sleeper agent in Moscow urgently seeks contact with Dan Forrester. But of course, due to his amnesia, Dan has no idea who they are and if they can be trusted. Meanwhile, Lucy is convinced a man arrested for the murder of his family is innocent but is finding it hard to prove it. Somehow these two things are connected and soon I found myself completely engrossed in this web of lies, deceit and family secrets.
After finishing book one in the series, my expectations for Tell Me A Lie were somewhere right up in the stratosphere. It was soon obvious though that I wasn’t going to be disappointed as C.J. Carver takes us to Scotland and Russia and made my head spin so hard with revelations, I almost felt dizzy. Once again, this is a taut and intricately plotted storyline that kept me hooked until the end. With an international conspiracy, an intriguing investigation and a brilliant cast of characters, I found it really hard to put this one down.
A multi-layered and well-paced thriller, Tell Me A Lie is an excellent addition to the Dan Forrester series and I can’t wait to catch up with the third instalment!
