The Friend who Lied by Rachel Amphlett-psychological thriller
Lisa wakes up in hospital and feels black and blue. She dare not look under the sheets
at her stomach as once she has seen it she can’t unsee it.and it feels bad, very bad.
She quickly realises that if she is alive then someone else must be dead. Her
friend Hayley visits her but before she can find out what has happened Hayley is
sent away as visiting time is well over. Lisa knows Simon was her donor but she
cannot for the life of her remember what happened. A group of them were out at
The Escape room to celebrate her birthday. The next thing she finds she is in
hospital. What on earth has happened and why is everyone being so secretive?
Oooh!!! This is one of those reads that makes you sit on the edge of your seat.
Each chapter is headed by the person telling that part of the story- Hayley,
Bec, Lisa, David. Each have their secrets and there is another secret that has
bound them together- a person went missing years before - something they
have all sworn secrecy to. I kept turning faster and faster as each time a
chapter ended it was as though another question was poised.
One question answered another one to ponder.
A very clever and well thought out plot. A captivating read.
