Why Did You Lie?
Mayelana nale audiobook
A journalist on the track of an old case attempts suicide.
An ordinary couple return from a house swap in the states to find their home in disarray and their guests seemingly missing.
Four strangers struggle to find shelter on a windswept spike of rock in the middle of a raging sea.
They have one thing in common: they all lied.
And someone is determined to punish them...
WHY DID YOU LIE is a terrifying tale of long-delayed retribution from Iceland's Queen of Suspense.
(P)2016 Hodder & Stoughton. Published by arrangement with Salomonsson Agency.
