Description

'The truth you must tell,

To all who you know,

Or you'll end up in hell,

Where you'll never grow.''

Eleven years ago, Astrid Moor got away with murder. Now, someone wants to make her pay.

Astrid turns to Alex Swanson for help, the officer who risked everything for her once before. Except he’s a big shot DI now, and isn’t prepared to help her again.

But even though she's alone Astrid doesn’t take kindly to threats, and when she finally realises who is terrorising her she makes a decision she will never recover from.

A decision with far worse consequences than any secrets from her past.

Advance Praise

"I was a big fan of Lucy's Coming For You, the first book in this series. Yet Mother... Liar... Murderer? is even better! ... The author’s writing style lends itself perfectly to the genre. She knows exactly when to end a scene and mount suspense. The characters are well-drawn and believable. The plot is perfectly paced, holds your interest, and keeps you guessing. It’s a page turner, for sure!'

'I absolutely loved the first book in this series and was worried that I wouldn't feel the same about this one. Phew, I do... I raced through this book wanting to see the outcome.'

''I love a good psychological thriller and this one went above my expectations. The twists and turns, the suspense, the shock factors! It was all enough to keep me reading, especially as I got closer to the end. I really enjoy Ashley's writing style and the way she builds her characters. There's nothing worse than being able to figure out the ending of a thriller, and this one kept me guessing.'

I received a gifted copy of this book to read in exchange for an honest review via the author.

Mother..Liar..Murderer? is a quick fast paced read and follows on from Ashley Beegans first novel Lucy's Coming For You. This is a series but both books so far can be read as stand alone.
This book follows Aubrey who lives a secluded life with her son after running away from an abusive life when he was a baby. But someone's found her and the past has crashed into the present. She receives a threat and then her son is approached at school and then later goes missing. She didn't recognise the stranger and is frantic to find out who is after her and what they want.
Aubrey contacts the one person she feels she can trust. The man who helped her escape all those years ago - DI Alex Swanson.
We catch up with Summer in this book too who is searching for her brother. Can Alex help both women and keep them safe?
This was a great read and I loved how it picked up straight after book 1 yet was also stand alone. There are some great little twists and turns in this book and I couldn't put it down! I can't wait to find out what will happen next in book 3!

No Spoilers
I am an avid thriller reader and was interested to read this title. The story itself is gripping and has many twists and turns that somehow link. The writing was good, although confusing at times.
The main theme of these book is crime thriller with aspects of murder and rape, although there are other themes running through the book, such as motherhood, family love and protection, and investigative/detective sidelines.
I would recommend this book for 18+ readers who enjoy crime thriller and horror. It is a little more gruesome than your average 'murder mystery' so I would probably not recommended it for fans of Agatha Christie / Louise Candlish unless you are wanting to branch out with your reading.
Overall, I would recommend and I enjoyed this title.

Ashley Beegan is quickly becoming a favorite author of mine. She writes fantastic thrillers that centers around some type of mental issue. In this book, she has added lots of twists and turns just when the reader thinks they know what is going on. The book has strong characters, good writing, and the author’s writing style is engaging page after page.

My only complaint, this book needs a better title.
