ALICE FEENEY'S NEW YORK TIMES AND INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER

"Boldly plotted, tightly knotted--a provocative true-or-false thriller that deepens and darkens to its ink-black finale. Marvelous." --AJ Finn, author of The Woman in the Window

My name is Amber Reynolds. There are three things you should know about me:
1. I'm in a coma.
2. My husband doesn't love me anymore.
3. Sometimes I lie.

Amber wakes up in a hospital. She can't move. She can't speak. She can't open her eyes. She can hear everyone around her, but they have no idea. Amber doesn't remember what happened, but she has a suspicion her husband had something to do with it. Alternating between her paralyzed present, the week before her accident, and a series of childhood diaries from twenty years ago, this brilliant psychological thriller asks: Is something really a lie if you believe it's the truth?

"If you're looking for a Gone Girl-esque fix, then this is the book for you." --Cosmopolitan

"A spine-tingling psychological thriller...the joy (and the stress) of this thriller is separating fact from fiction. The creepy feeling at the back of your neck is 100 percent real." --People

"[An] insanely twisty thriller." --Entertainment Weekly

"The twists pile up...visceral and haunting." --Oprah.com

"Alice Feeney's twisty psychological thriller, Sometimes I Lie, her debut novel, slides neatly into the company of Gillian Flynn's Gone Girl and Paula Hawkins's The Girl on the Train. With its various plot twists, it's a dizzying, disturbing read that becomes hard to put down once Amber tells us, 'I'm back now and I remember everything.'" --The Minneapolis Star Tribune

"This brilliant psychological thriller kept me guessing until the very last page." --Jessica Knoll, New York Times bestselling author of Luckiest Girl Alive and The Favorite Sister

"A gripping debut with a brilliant twist, I LOVED it!" --BA Paris, New York Times bestselling author of Behind Closed Doors

"Faster and more twisted than a roller coaster with an ending that'll make your stomach drop, Alice Feeney's Sometimes I Lie is not to be missed. I loved it!" --Mary Kubica, New York Times bestselling author of The Good Girl and Every Last Lie

"Propulsive and absorbing. Such a compelling, provocative narrator!" --Flynn Berry, author of Under the Harrow

"Fans of the psychological thriller will enjoy this ambitious debut." --Kirkus Reviews

"The ending is jaw-dropping." --AARP's The Girlfriend

"A serpentine tale of betrayal, madness, and murder.... Feeney is definitely a writer to watch." --Publishers Weekly

"I read this in one compulsive gulp in one day. It's SO fiendishly clever--an absolute masterclass in plotting and narrative design." --Richard Skinner, author of The Mirror

"A bold and original voice--I loved this book." --Clare Mackintosh, New York Times bestselling author of I Let You Go and I See You

"Tightly plotted, superbly written, this is a thriller that grabs you and holds you in its thrall. This story of a woman in a coma recalling the violence in her life gave me just enough information to remain entirely gripped yet sufficiently little that I didn't know where I'd find the answers, or even the questions at times. I was led--completely willingly--in various different directions and until the final few pages I was baffled yet engrossed. And then, suddenly, at the very end, everything became clear. A brilliantly assured debut and a real achievement." --Nicholas Searle, author of international bestseller The Good Liar

"Exceptional in plotting...Expect perfectly embedded twists and sharply drawn characters. A brilliant thriller." --Ali Land, author of Good Me Bad Me
