THE ART OF A LIE, is out TODAY! It's a tale of murder, trickery, love, betrayal & Georgian London's first 'iced cream' parlour. I can't wait for you to meet Hannah & William, my two favourite characters of any of my books. Look at that beautiful cover. How can you resist? 💚🍍🍦

Daughter. Friend. Lover. Victim. Murderer? 'Stunning: so clever, so gripping, so timely' LUCY FOLEY 'Unique, punchy and super-smart' ABIGAIL DEAN When four influential members of London’s most exclusive private club are poisoned, a young waitress is charged with their murder after being caught fleeing the scene of the crime. As the trial grips the nation, five men begin to question how well they really knew her. There’s her father, who remembers the sweet girl growing up in Devon; her childhood friend, who is swept up in her fascination with conspiracy theories; her lover, who wants to distance himself from a young woman with an obsession; her barrister, who knows she’s hiding something; and the journalist investigating the case, who is convinced he knows exactly who she is: a cold-blooded killer. Five men. Five stories. But who is the real Katie Cole?
