Sinossi
I genitori di Sophia hanno sempre vissuto una vita tranquilla e anonima. Perlomeno è quanto credeva Sophia, fino al giorno, un giorno come tanti altri, in cui va a trovarli e, arrivando, nota che la casa è particolarmente silenziosa. Suona il campanello, ma nessuno viene ad aprire la porta. Sorpresa più che preoccupata, Sophia fa il giro del giardino, dove si immobilizza di fronte una scoperta agghiacciante: vede la madre impiccata a un albero, e il padre a terra in una pozza di sangue, ancora vivo ma incosciente. La polizia crede che si tratti di un tentato omicidio e suicidio, ma Sophia non riesce a credere che la madre sia un’assassina, e poiché il padre non è in grado di parlare, sta a lei convincere gli investigatori.
Alla ricerca di prove, Sophia inizia a frugare nella casa dei suoi genitori e della sua infanzia e a scavare nella vita della sua famiglia. Fino a quando non incappa in due quaderni che a quanto pare la madre stava per pubblicare, che raccontano un passato di cui lei ignorava completamente l’esistenza, e da cui capisce che dei suoi genitori in realtà lei sapeva ben poco…
Inquietante, avvolgente, Niente è come credi è uno psicothriller che tiene incollati alla pagina fino allo sconvolgente e imprevedibile finale.

Recensioni
This psychological thriller is a good quick read and certainly a page turner. I enjoyed this novel and throughout the book wanted to carry on reading to find out what happens next. The plot is certainly not flawless and some things better not dwelt on but this did not spoil my enjoyment in the sligh Leggi tutto
I got thoroughly immersed into “Everything Is Lies” almost immediately – excellent lead in to an emotionally charged story that was absolutely gripping. Sophia comes home to find her mother dead and her father critically injured in an apparent murder/suicide – but she is not convinced and when she di Leggi tutto
Thrilling and twisted. A great read.
The first couple of chapters of this book made for riveting reading and I was hooked instantly. Wow, this one got off to a cracker. I immediately bonded with Sophia, and my heart went out to her. The terrible situation that she found herself in, the guilt, the pain, the "what if's", I could understa Leggi tutto
This book is one that you don’t want to go into with too much knowledge, I had read the blurb but when I got around to reading I couldn’t quite remember entirely what it was and that made for a more intense and mysterious reading experience. The story is told in two narratives, through Sophia as she Leggi tutto
I really enjoyed this book which kept me guessing all the way through. I didn't manage to guess what was going to happen. I was suspicious of everyone, but not sure who was going to turn out to be part of the mystery! Sophia is called home by her mum and delays returning until the following day. She Leggi tutto
I have to say, I hardly ever come across a book that I never ever want it to end. Sure, I've given a lot of 5 star ratings, with all my heart too, but what I am talking about here is something completely different. My eyes seriously hurt, I was reading for 2 hours straight and didn't even know it. T Leggi tutto
