The Good Liars by Anita Frank

3.5

“The Good Liars” is a story of crime, deceit and murder, set in the early 1920. 

This was my first book by Anita Frank, and while I’m not an avid historical fiction reader, I’ve enjoyed this one. While the plot did have its moments of predictability, and the pace was quite slow for my taste, I found myself thoroughly engrossed thanks to Frank's eloquent and moving writing style. Her ability to paint a vivid picture of the era, with the lingering aftermath of the Great War and the profound impact (physical and psychological) it had on everyone, is truly commendable.

Most of the characters were unlikable and occasionally annoying, which added a layer of complexity to the story.

If you enjoy Agatha Christie you will probably appreciate the atmospheric vibes of "The Good Liars." The story has that classic mystery allure, and the twist, although somewhat anticipated, was executed brilliantly. It's the kind of revelation that still manages to send shivers down your spine when it unfolds.

In conclusion, "The Good Liars" is a slow-paced gothic read with potential supernatural elements that will appeal to fans of classic mysteries and historical drama.
