About the Book

In this suspenseful, gripping novel, teen twin girls raised separately meet for the first time at their mother's funeral. Quinn has been trained to never tell a lie. Piper is a practiced liar. Narrated in both voices, the story of their quest to learn truths that have been concealed from them is shadowed by a dark spell that beckons them to run at night with a pack of murdering ghost hounds. Suspense, menace, mystery, witchcraft, family secrets, mistaken identity, and romance are interwoven in a brilliantly written page-turner that will grab and thrill teen readers.


What happens when the only person who shares your face is the one person you can't trust?


  • Twins Separated at Birth: Quinn has spent her life telling the truth. Piper has perfected the art of the lie. When their mother's death brings them together, they must navigate a new sisterhood where nothing is as it seems.
  • A Supernatural Mystery: A dark family curse summons a pack of phantom hounds that hunt the moors at night, and the twins are its next target.
  • Uncovering Family Secrets: Their mother's past is a web of secrets and betrayals, and finding the truth might be more dangerous than the lies.
  • Atmospheric Dartmoor Setting: Set against the wild, windswept landscape of the English moors, this gothic-tinged tale is dripping with menace and ancient magic.

Review :

"A great addition for those who enjoy thrillers or fantasy ­fiction." -SLJ "With elements of gothic literature (and a few references to Wuthering Heights), this story could serve as a bridge to gothic classics. Thriller readers may simply enjoy the creepy mystery." --Kirkus "Compelling female leads, an atmospheric setting, and short, quick chapters make this a good choice for reluctant readers looking for horror lite." --Booklist ". . . [The Book of Lies] is a juicy story of twins gone . . ." --Bulletin
