This Lie Will Kill You
Clue meets Riverdale in this page-turning thriller that exposes the lies five teens tell about a deadly night one year ago.
One year ago, there was a party.
At the party, someone died.
Five teens each played a part and up until now, no one has told the truth.
But tonight, the five survivors arrive at an isolated mansion in the hills, expecting to compete in a contest with a $50,000 grand prize. Of course…some things are too good to be true. They were each so desperate for the prize, they didn’t question the odd, rather exclusive invitation until it was too late.
Now, they realize they’ve been lured together by a person bent on revenge, a person who will stop at nothing to uncover what actually happened on that deadly night, one year ago.
Five arrived, but not all can leave. Will the truth set them free?
Or will their lies destroy them all?
My Review
Yes, this book may be Clue meets Riverdale but not the dark version of Riverdale. It was mild. At least the characters were decent. I did not totally hate them but at the same time I did not love them. If anything I would kind of classify the group as the characters from I Know What You Did Last Summer.
Since we are on the subject of campy horror thrillers, I do have to say that is the vibe I got from reading this book. Not that is a bad thing as I do enjoy a campy horror movie or book every once in a while. In fact, I used to watch SYFY movies on the weekends. I think I have watched every different version of a shark or alligator type movie except for the Sharknado movies.
There were some characters that I did not shed a tear for when they died in this book. Yet, I can tell you now that if I ever received an mysterious invite to a party that I will have to decline. There can never be anything good that comes from receiving a mysterious envelope in the mail with no postmark.
