Sinossi
“Mi sto vendicando? Sto facendo giustizia? Decidete voi: io posso solo raccontarvi la mia storia…” Meg Williams, Maggie Littleton, Melody Wilde. Tre nomi diversi, una sola donna. Capace di assumere, con abilità sconcertante, l’identità di una studentessa universitaria o di una life coach o di un’agente immobiliare… E quando le sue vittime capiscono l’inganno, per loro è ormai troppo tardi. Però Meg/Maggie/Melody non lo fa per soldi e non lo fa a caso. La sua è una vendetta precisa, calcolata al millimetro. Una vendetta per qualcosa che è successo a lei e a sua madre tanto tempo fa. Mirata a colpire uomini che ingannano, sfruttano, denigrano le donne. Una vendetta senza spargimento di sangue, ma che distrugge la vita di quegli uomini, mandando in frantumi ogni cosa: la loro dignità, la loro reputazione, il loro benessere economico, le loro famiglie. Meg/Maggie/Melody non ha però fatto i conti con Kat Roberts, un’ostinata giornalista investigativa che da dieci anni segue le sue tracce. Ma perché lo fa? Per smascherarla? O soltanto per capirla? Un gioco tra verità e inganni, condotto sul filo di una scrittura tesa, coinvolgente e incisiva.

I loved Last Flight! I wasn’t expecting that dear Julie Clark may write something even better! But she did! She literally rocked my world! Just like Last Flight, she focused on two different women character: one of them is a notorious con woman Meg who ruined reporter, non-published struggling autho Leggi tutto
4.0 stars — Let me start this review by saying I like women. I work with mostly women. A lot of my friends are women. Heck, I am even married to a woman. So after reading “The Lies I Tell” by the very talented Julie Clark and a couple of books by Lisa Jewell among others, I ask “Why are all the men Leggi tutto
Meg Williams has gone by many names and has had many different lives. She’s a con artist, and through precise planning, she can be whomever she needs to be to get the job done. Kat Roberts is a journalist who has been hunting Meg for the past 10 years. Now that she has her in her sights, she won’t l Leggi tutto
Devious "All I had to do was tell a man what he wanted to hear."The Lies I Tell is a compulsively readable thriller about a con artist and the reporter trying to expose her. When the two women finally meet, an unexpected outcome unfolds. Meg is a con artist with a code. Kat is a reporter determined
3.75 Stars Meg gets all the stars for me here. I really enjoyed her character, backstory, and aura. Kat, on the other hand...annoyed me with how clueless she was for most of the book; however, I really appreciated the way the story ended for her and the "growth" she showed. But I'm getting ahead of m Leggi tutto
”The difference between justice and revenge comes down to who’s telling the story.” Meg, a con woman, travels the country under assumed names, perfecting her craft for years in preparation for the biggest con of all: going after the man who ruined her life. Kat, an investigative reporter, considers h Leggi tutto
Unpopular Opinion Not a fan of Meg or Kat. I couldn't relate to them and didn't find either very likeable. Meg is a conniver and Kat has wanted to expose her for 10 years. Well, guess what? Meg is back in town. This time as a real estate agent in L.A. and the game is on once again. Neither of them are o Leggi tutto
