Anna Johnson is at a turning point in her life on the anniversary of her parents' deaths. She and her partner Mark have a new baby, she lost both of her parents just a year ago to suicide and Mark is bugging her about getting married. At the same time, the car dealership in which she has inherited part-ownership from her father has fallen on hard times and her uncle refuses to accept help from Anna. It is thus quite a shock when a note is pushed through the mail slot that seems to imply her parents' deaths weren't suicides after all. When further notes containing cryptic messages follow, Anna seeks the help of the police. Before it's all over, Anna will discover that she may not have known her parents as well as she thought.
Let Me Lie by Clare Mackintosh is a stand-alone thriller that will keep the reader engaged from start to finish. Mackintosh blends her experience as a police officer and CID investigator with her background as a journalist to pen a novel that is as good a mystery as I've ever read, especially any British crime novel. The novel is set in England, so there may be some terms that are unfamiliar to a reader but that has no impact on being able to full enjoy the novel. I highly recommend this novel and give it 4/5 stars.
