The Woman Who Lied

By: Claire Douglas

Narrated by: Gemma Whelan, Ayesha Antoine

Brought to you by Penguin.

A gripping thriller from the bestselling author of The Couple at No 9.

Emilia Ward is just an ordinary mum living happily in suburban London with her husband and two children - a teenager from her first marriage, a little boy from her second. She also happens to be the bestselling author of the Miranda Moody detective novels.

But when Emilia embarks on her tenth novel, life takes a disturbing turn: an incident straight out of the plot of one of her novels occurs in real life. Just an unsettling coincidence, she thinks.

Until it happens again - and again.

Then someone she knows dies in the same way as a victim in the book she's currently writing...

Why is someone doing this?

How do they know what she is writing?

And what if Emilia and her family are next?
