Deception Wears Many Faces by Maggie James

Deception wears Many Faces- Maggie James-  5* Psychological thriller
Lyddie has given up accountancy and Bristol for a life in Andalucia painting, thanks to an
inheritance from her father. She flies home when her sister Ellie has tried to take her own
life, again. When Lyddie finds out why and having had enough of issues with men herself,
she realises that it is time that something was done about it.  She takes on a new persona
to try and snare the man who has caused so much anguish to Ellie. I took to Lydia from
the start and felt for Ellie and what she had gone through. Maggie has such a talent with
words that you are drawn in from the beginning and just want to keep reading whilst at
the same time not wanting the story to end as you are enthralled in the pages. I thought
I knew where this was going but with twists and turns along the way it kept me enveloped.
I read it in one day so great was the pull of finding out the ending. An interesting premise,
a clever plot brilliantly written. A captivating read.

Book Description:

When Lyddie takes her sister to Devon to recover after a recent suicide attempt, it starts a train of events that will put their lives in grave danger.

Ellie has been the victim of a professional con artist, one who stole her savings, then disappeared from her life. Driven by her own history of failed relationships, Lyddie vows revenge on the man who broke her sister’s heart.

Soon she assumes a false identity and begins her hunt for a man she knows to be cold, calculating and ruthless. But who is fooling whom? And can Lyddie find the justice she seeks and heal her damaged sister? 

Author Bio:

Before turning her hand to writing, Maggie worked mainly as an accountant, with a diversion into practising as a nutritional therapist. Diet and health remain high on her list of interests, along with travel. Accountancy does not, but then it never did. The urge to pack a bag and go off travelling is always lurking in the background! When not writing, going to the gym, practising yoga or travelling, Maggie can be found seeking new four-legged friends to pet; animals are a lifelong love!
