The opening scene is pretty intense. It definitely got me hooked right from the start. There are quite a few twists in the story. It is a very well written mystery. The characters are very well written.

FOUR GOOD LIARS is an edge-of-your-seat thriller about four teens surviving a bus crash and coming into possession of one million pounds from a drug cartel.
The characters have little in common and all have their own reasons for wanting money but little reasons to trust one another. It's a great set up for plenty of tension and uneasy about what might happen next and who can be trusted.
It's a twisty, compulsive read with so many surprises in store. I had to keep reading and find out who survived and the identity of the various mysterious figures after the teens.
The ending in particular was great, with the rug pulled out from under you several times. There were a few points when I thought it was over but another twist was sprung.
The book is mostly told through chapters told from the four characters' perspectives but there are also extracts from their WhatsApp chats and newspaper articles. The texts are a nice way of getting their different opinions across fast while also feeling so authentic.
