The Perfect Liar

‘Are you sure he’s someone you can trust? We know nothing at all about him. Who is he, really?’

Susanne and her two best friends have been dreaming of a holiday. All of them need an escape. Especially Susanne, who is reeling from the news that her ex is getting remarried. They need the warm Tuscan sun, delicious Italian food and wine, and – most of all – the time to unwind with each other. What they get is Harry.

Handsome, charming and great company, Harry soon sweeps Susanne off her feet for a holiday fling. And why not? Except that everything he’s told them is a lie.

Who is the man they’ve let into their house – who Susanne has let into her bed? They have no idea what Harry is capable of – what he’s done to get this far, and what he’s prepared to do to ensure he gets his way.

By the time they find out, it will be too late to stop their dream holiday becoming a nightmare.

An utterly addictive, page-turning thriller with a jaw-dropping twist. If you loved The Girlfriend, The Holiday and Something in the Water, you’ll be completely gripped by The Perfect Liar.

I could not put this down – it’s brilliant!
“All the essential ingredients of a fantastic thriller.”

A top-notch thriller set in glorious Tuscany, complete with a triple-twist ending! Favoloso!
“…the narrative builds to a nail-biting and super thrilling climax…”

“Well, this is a thriller and a half. I started reading before bed which was a huge mistake. It completely hooks you in and you just keep wanting to know more. Very twisty and excellently written.” [Source: NetGalley]

“I LOVED THIS BOOK! Kudos to Beverley Harvey – this is impeccably written and ticks every single box for a mystery junkie like me! [The author] virtually takes you on holiday, presenting you with the Italian dream, then turning it into a nightmare.” [Source: NetGalley]

“Wow! I absolutely loved this book from the first page, it just pulls you in and doesn’t let go! I really had to force myself to put it down at times but it was well worth the wait! And the ending was brilliant… I can’t wait to see what else this author has to offer in the future. If I could give it more than 5 stars I would.” [Source: Goodreads]

Close My Eyes

How did I forget the worst thing that’s ever happened to me? And how do I try and put it right?

The first time I remembered, I thought I was dying. I couldn’t breathe – something was crushing my chest – all I could see was darkness. A terrible fear, pulling me under. And all because of a glimpse of a face I hadn’t seen in years.

Since then I’ve realised: this is a memory of an attack. Something vicious happened to me years ago – a night that changed my life, without me even knowing. My family and friends don’t believe me – they say I’m imagining things, but I know I’m right. What I don’t know is who was responsible. And I won’t stop until I find out.

Wherever the truth leads me. Whatever betrayals are uncovered. Whatever the risk.

Totally immersive, loved it.
“Her remarkable observations and ability to get into her characters’ minds – as well as ours – makes for a stunning read.”

“Thrilling. Pacy. Suspenseful. Addictive. This one ticked all the boxes for me. I could not put it down. Very highly recommended.”

Difficult and well written story.

So good.

A dream holiday. A fractured marriage. A dangerous secret. The author of The Perfect Liar takes readers on a nightmare vacation.

When Ryan and Emma Burrows win a luxury holiday to Menorca, it feels like the fresh start their marriage desperately needs. Seventeen nights in a sun-soaked villa with their six-year-old daughter Callie. What could go wrong?

Their neighbors seem friendly enough. Jack and Sheena, with their two young boys, are quick to organize playdates. Max and John, charming and sociable ex-pats, seem eager to make friends. But beneath the surface, tensions simmer. Emma can’t shake the feeling that something is off.

Then Callie disappears. A ransom demand follows, and suddenly, everyone is a suspect. Secrets from the past rise to the surface, exposing lies that threaten to unravel everything. Soon Emma and Ryan must face the truth about their marriage, their neighbors, and the devastating mistake that could cost them everything . . .

Dark, twisty, and utterly addictive The Villa Next Door is a suspenseful page-turner about trust, betrayal, and the consequences of long-buried secrets.
