BLURB:

Everyone has secrets ...

When Ryan’s dying father gives him a sealed shoebox with instructions to open once he’s passed, Ryan can only speculate on what’s inside. The last thing he expects is for his father to shoot himself immediately afterward, or for the shoebox to contain ten thousand dollars cash.

But the money isn’t for Ryan; it’s for someone named Jamie Norton. When Ryan learns Jamie is an old friend of the family with a shady past, he looks to his mother for answers.

But he isn’t the only one looking.

Ryan thought he knew his parents. But the deeper he digs, the more he learns that some families will do whatever it takes to keep their secrets buried—no matter what the cost.

My Review:

His Last Lie kept me glued to my seat with its many twists and turns that surprised me around every corner. His Last Lie just kept surprising me with its many secrets as well. It had me filled with so many questions that I kept hanging onto those questions without giving any answers from beginning to end with a shocking ending.

I loved the kind of relationship Ryan and Rachel shared and the way they interacted with each other. They helped to keep the story interesting in a lot of ways. Ryan’s life is covered in mystery and cover-ups. Ryan’s mother and father’s lives were both surrounded by mystery too.

Ryan’s father gave him an old shoe box and asked him to deliver it to Jamie Norton after his death. As soon as Ryan and Rachel left his apartment they heard a gunshot. They rush back to his father’s apartment to find his father dead. The shoe box had $10,000 inside.

This knowledge left Ryan filled with lots of questions. Questions that he is not sure if he will ever find the answers to with his father now dead. Finding this Jamie is not as easy as it may seem as the address his father gave him was incorrect. Ryan with Rachel’s help set out to find Jamie.

I highly recommend His Last Lie to all mystery and thriller fans! Grab a copy of His Last Lie today!
