Four friends. One betrayal. And a revenge that didn’t die with him. A chilling domestic thriller from the author of The Missing Ones.

Chris Harcourt is dying. At just fifty-one, cancer is claiming his life—but not before his wife Jess delivers a final, devastating blow. On the day of his death, Jess reveals the secret she’s been hiding for decades: she slept with each of his closest friends in cold, calculated revenge for his long-ago affair.

Now, the once-tight foursome is fractured beyond repair . . . and someone is making sure it stays that way.

One by one, the men begin to die. A slashed throat on a golf course. A stabbing in a school car park. A hit-and-run gone horribly wrong. Detectives Will Stewart and Claire Landon race to find the killer, following a trail that leads them to Chris’s former carer, Elsa Manvers.

But in a twist no one sees coming, the real killers are still out there, hiding in plain sight. And they’ve only just begun . . .

Perfect for fans of Freida McFadden and Shari Lapena, The House of Lies is a dark, twisty tale of vengeance, secrets, and the terrifying lengths some people will go to protect family.
