Three Perfect Liars by Heidi Perks
2.0

A riveting new suspense novel about three ambitious women whose lives are turned upside down in the aftermath of a horrifying fire, which destroys a successful advertising agency and threatens to expose a tangled web of lies.

Laura has returned to work at Morris and Wood after her maternity leave, only to discover that the woman she brought in to cover for her isn’t planning on going anywhere. Despite her close relationship with the agency’s powerful CEO, Harry Wood, she feels sidelined—and outmaneuvered—as she struggles to balance the twin demands of work and motherhood.

Mia was only supposed to be a temporary hire at Morris and Wood, but she’s managed to make herself indispensable to everyone. Everyone, that is, except Laura. If people only knew why she was so desperate to keep her job, they might not want her to stay.

Janie gave up everything to support her husband and the successful agency he runs. But she has her own dark secret to protect…and will go to any lengths to keep it safe.


A book full of very annoying characters! Are we really still reading/writing books about 'motherhood angst'? Just how pathetic could Laura be?

The story about Mia was fairly dull, predictable and the fact that she chose Janie to suffer and not her sister's rapist was just ridiculous.

And then we get to Janie, a defence barrister, who regrets her defence of said rapist. For heavens sake, she must have defended worse people in her time - it's our justice system! The right to a defence!

Honestly, this book was so irritating I'm amazed that I'm even giving it 2 stars! How did Jess, in a wheelchair, set the fire and escape? A better ending would have been if the mother had been the arsonist!
