Description

In this suspenseful, gripping novel, teen twin girls raised separately meet for the first time at their mother’s funeral. Quinn has been trained to never tell a lie. Piper is a practiced liar. Narrated in both voices, the story of their quest to learn truths that have been concealed from them is shadowed by a dark spell that beckons them to run at night with a pack of murdering ghost hounds. Suspense, menace, mystery, witchcraft, family secrets, mistaken identity, and romance are interwoven in a brilliantly written page-turner that will grab and thrill teen readers.

Reviews

"A great addition for those who enjoy thrillers or fantasy ­fiction." –SLJ   "With elements of gothic literature (and a few references to Wuthering Heights), this story could serve as a bridge to gothic classics. Thriller readers may simply enjoy the creepy mystery." —Kirkus   "Compelling female leads, an atmospheric setting, and short, quick chapters make this a good choice for reluctant readers looking for horror lite." —Booklist   ". . . [The Book of Lies] is a juicy story of twins gone . . ." —Bulletin
