À propos de cet audio

Long-listed, NPR Best Book of the Year, 2024

"A world-class whodunit."—Stephen King

“An extremely successful high-wire act, balancing between dark comedy and darker thrills.”—Alex Michaelides, #1 New York Times bestselling author

“Laugh-out-loud funny, thrilling and twisty...”—Liane Moriarty, #1 New York Times bestselling author

"A lot of thrillers these days use the murder podcast as a plot device. This production simulates one better than any audiobook I’ve listened to, to an often hilarious effect. Also, January LaVoy expertly voices one of Lucy’s funniest tics: imagining how she would murder nearly every person with whom she comes in contact."—Vulture

"Narrator January LaVoy is a treat to listen to, as she gives Lucy the sardonic tone she needs as she grapples with life. LaVoy is also a genius in the way she gives life to Lucy's inner voice—a psychological shoulder demon who wants to solve every issue with ... "let's kill him."—The Berkshire Eagle

"Narrator LaVoy absolutely shines as the broken yet charmingly cheeky heroine. Her tale is organically intermixed with podcast excerpts delivered in honeyed and wry tones by Will Damron, each bookended by delightful 'podcasty' melodies."—Booklist

What if you thought you murdered your best friend? And if everyone else thought so too? And what if the truth doesn't matter?

After Lucy is found wandering the streets, covered in her best friend Savvy’s blood, everyone thinks she is a murderer. Lucy and Savvy were the golden girls of their small Texas town: pretty, smart, and enviable. Lucy married a dream guy with a big ring and an even bigger new home. Savvy was the social butterfly loved by all, and if you believe the rumors, especially popular with the men in town. It’s been years since that horrible night, a night Lucy can’t remember anything about, and she has since moved to LA and started a new life.

But now the phenomenally huge hit true crime podcast "Listen for the Lie," and its too-good looking host Ben Owens, have decided to investigate Savvy’s murder for the show’s second season. Lucy is forced to return to the place she vowed never to set foot in again to solve her friend’s murder, even if she is the one that did it.

The truth is out there, if we just listen.

A Macmillan Audio production from Celadon Books.

Ce que les critiques en disent

Listen for the Lie is a page-turner from the first sentence to the very last. In addition to being a world-class whodunit, full of carefully doled-out twists, Lucy is a terrific character, feisty and funny and, it turns out, brave as hell. It’s great fun. Readers will rip through this one.”—Stephen King

“Original and deliciously dark with a wicked sense of humor. An addictive page-turner that will keep you guessing until the end.”—Alice Feeney, New York Times bestselling author

“A singular voice that explodes off the page, Amy Tintera's writing flashes with sharp comebacks and pointed commentary as she expertly knits her web of secrets and small town lies. Hands down the most fun I've had reading about murder.”—Chandler Baker, New York Times bestselling author of The Husbands

I listened to it all in one day! Funny at times and great pacing with a main character you can root for even if your not sure she’s innocent.

great unfolding mystery!

I loved this story - I finished it in 2 days because I had to know what happened. So fun uncovering memories/mysteries at the same time as the narrator, and the story really lends itself to the audiobook form. The sometimes-sexy tension doesn’t hurt either! SO GOOD. I hope the author writes more in this genre.

Great read!

It’s similar to listening to a murder podcast but with some humour. Catches your attention right from the start and keeps you guessing throughout the entire book. Super quick read!

Felt like a Podcast!

An original look at the world of true crime podcasts. A scrappy protagonist who I was rooting for the entire time. A hard look at how woman are often to blame and then blame themselves. We need to keep trying these stories.

Creative! Good story.

At first the audio interruption of the podcast startled me (I listen to fall asleep) but once I knew it was coming and got to know the host of the podcast through the story line it was good. Some spicy, intimate “moments” I was not expecting made it fun and interesting, gave the characters a little more depth.

Great book to read with your ears

The podcast format was great for an audiobook and the performances were really well done. I really enjoyed the main character Lucy's wit and humour, and her grandmother was a wonderful character as well!

Highly recommend this book!

This story and how it was presented captured my interest right away. I listened to it every chance I had and fully enjoyed the mystery. I hope there is a new book by this author soon.
