Everyone Is Lying to You

A Thriller

De: Jo Piazza

Narrado por: Rachel F. Hirsch, Sarah Reny, Vas Eli, Saskia Maarleveld

The #tradwife murder mystery we’ve all been waiting for. From the bestselling author of The Sicilian Inheritance and the creator of the Under the Influence podcast comes an explosive thriller about two estranged friends, a grisly murder, a sudden disappearance, and the truly shocking revelation that everyone is lying to you about something . . .

Lizzie and Bex were best friends in college. After graduation, Bex vanished, leaving Lizzie confused and devastated.

Fifteen years later, Bex is now Rebecca Sommers, a “traditional” Instagram influencer with millions of followers who salivate over her perfect life on her ranch with her five children and handsome husband, Gray. Lizzie is a struggling magazine writer, watching reels while her young children demand her attention.

One night out of the blue, Bex calls Lizzie with a career-making proposition—an exclusive interview with her about her multimillion-dollar business venture and an invitation to MomBomb, the high-profile influencing conference.

At the conference, Bex goes missing and Gray is found brutally murdered on their ranch. Lizzie finds herself plunged into the dark side of the cutthroat world of social media that includes jealousy, sordid affairs, swingers, and backstabbing. She must learn who her old friend has become and who she has double-crossed to try to find her, clear her name, and maybe even save her life.

Piazza’s master storytelling and razor-sharp insight into the world of social media brings us a pulpy, juicy, and cleverly plotted listen that will have you guessing all the way through and leave you gasping for more.

Reseñas de la Crítica

“Everyone is Lying to You had me questioning everything I thought I knew about social media and influencer culture. A tense, seductive thriller exploring the covetous desire to be someone else and the quiet, conflicting hunger we feel to be seen for exactly who we are. A riveting, eye-opening read.”—Elle Cosimano, New York Times bestselling author of Finlay Donovan is Killing It

"Jo Piazza has crafted a wild, addictive, and mercilessly entertaining read. Beyond the twisty plot and darkly delicious humor (an influencer conference called 'MomBomb' is alone worth the price of entry), Everyone is Lying to You dissects the fundamentals of our closest relationships with alarming acuity, spinning a riveting tale of power dynamics that shift in unexpected—and dangerous—ways."—Abbott Kahler, New York Times bestselling author of Where You End

“'Can an influencer still be influenced?' And can she be persuaded to kill? These questions in Jo Piazza’s immersive new murder mystery hover in the pages like the scent of freshly baked sourdough bread. Paced like a new egg-apron going viral, Everyone Is Lying to You is Gone Girl…but make it trad wives. Piazza nails the Quiverful trad wife persona, the duality and secret-keeping behind the glossy aesthetic, as well as what it’s like to be in main character Lizzie’s shoes—on the outside looking in, wondering why living like a pretty Puritan dripping in children and chickens can be simultaneously so disturbing and yet hypnotically attractive. The wildly dramatic plot twists seem extreme until I remember two things: what it’s like to really be a trad wife (I was one) and most of these plot twists have all been actual headlines in the fundamentalist, patriarchy. I love stories where the women save themselves and was rooting for Bex all the way. Trad wives have mad skills and Piazza lets these women sparkle like freshly squeezed sunshine on a lemon-scented farm table. These women are not here to play."—Tia Levings, author of New York Times Bestselling A Well-Trained Wife: My Escape from Christian Patriarchy
