Story
Maya was a high school senior when her best friend, Aubrey, dropped dead in front of the enigmatic man named Frank whom they’d been spending time with all summer. Seven years later, Maya lives in Boston with a loving boyfriend and is kicking the secret addiction that has allowed her to cope with what happened years ago, the gaps in her memories, and the lost time that she can’t account for. But her past comes rushing back when she comes across a recent YouTube video in which a young woman suddenly keels over and dies in a diner while sitting across from none other than Frank.

Early one morning on the shore of the Thames, DCI Samuel Owusu is called to the scene of a gruesome discovery. When Owusu sends the evidence for examination, he learns the bones are connected to a cold case that left three people dead on the kitchen floor in a Chelsea mansion thirty years ago. Rachel Rimmer has also received a shock—her husband, Michael, has been found dead in the cellar of his house in France.

Publisher's Summary
From the New York Times best-selling author of the "pulse-quickening" (Good Housekeeping UK) In a Dark, Dark Wood and The Woman in Cabin 10 comes Ruth Ware's highly anticipated third novel, featuring her signature "verve and energy" (Library Journal).
On a cool June morning, Isa Wilde, a resident of the seemingly idyllic coastal village of Salten, is walking her dog along a tidal estuary. Before she can stop him, Isa's dog charges into the water to retrieve what first appears to be a wayward stick - and to her horror, Isa discovers it's not a stick at all...but a human bone. As her three best friends from childhood converge in Salten to comfort a seriously shaken-up Isa, terrifying discoveries are made, and their collective history slowly unravels.
Tackling the slipperiness of memories, the relativity of truth, and the danger of obsessive friendships, The Lying Game is a gripping mystery with compelling characters and electric prose, resulting in a can't-stop-listening thriller.

Surprised by how much I enjoyed it
I’d read lots of reviews from folks thoroughly disappointed with this one - I’ve listened to all of the others from Ruth Ware, and I absolutely LOVE Imogen Church (so much that I’m now finding books read/performed by her as my new selection criteria haha) so I wanted to give it a go. And I really enjoyed The Lying Game - the characters, the story (sure the regular flaws but not so bad, and a twist at the end that I didn’t foresee). I enjoyed it more so and than the Woman In Cabin 10, which has become my least fav of the 4.

Well written but I found it boring
I really wanted to like this one because it was so well written and the narration was great but the story line dragged on for way too long. It was a hit of a snooze fest for me. Was waiting for something exciting to happen but was disappointed. Will pass on the recommendation on this one.

Captivating
As with all of Ruth Ware's books I find myself inexplicably unable to put them down/pause. The reading by Imogen Church added a color I didnt know I needed, insightful and expressive. 10/10 have recommended to friends.
