Every Last Lie by Mary Kubica

 Every Last Lie by Mary Kubica - 331 pages









"The bad man, Daddy. The bad man is after us." 

Clara Solberg's world shatters when her husband and their four-year-old daughter are in a car crash, killing Nick while Maisie is remarkably unharmed. The crash is ruled an accident…until the coming days, when Maisie starts having night terrors that make Clara question what really happened on that fateful afternoon. 

Tormented by grief and her obsession that Nick's death was far more than just an accident, Clara is plunged into a desperate hunt for the truth. Who would have wanted Nick dead? And, more important, why? Clara will stop at nothing to find out—and the truth is only the beginning of this twisted tale of secrets and deceit. 

Told in the alternating perspectives of Clara's investigation and Nick's last months leading up to the crash, master of suspense Mary Kubica weaves her most chilling thriller to date—one that explores the dark recesses of a mind plagued by grief and shows that some secrets might be better left buried.

I read this book because I just recently finished Local Woman Missing by the same author and loved it. I was not a fan of this book. I just couldn't connect with the main character and honestly didn't even like her. The main character would talk to herself a lot about what she felt and then speak it out loud. It just seemed like the author was just trying to fill up the pages with words. I will still read other books by this author, but I felt like this one was a flop and wouldn't recommend it.
