Karen M. McManus, known for her international success with the YA thriller "One of Us Is Lying," returns with an enticing new murder-mystery titled "Such Charming Liars." The book, adorned in bright pink with a matching sprayed edge, comes with an exclusive bonus short story. The narrative follows a mother-daughter pair of con artists as they plan one final heist before retiring from their deceitful ways. However, what should have been a straightforward job soon spirals into chaos with a fatal outcome, leaving them to deal with the fallout.
Kat has always navigated life alongside her mother, Jamie, except for a brief period 12 years ago when Jamie was married for just two days, introducing Kat to her stepbrother, Liam. That marriage ended abruptly, and now Jamie, striving to abandon her con artist lifestyle, agrees to one last scheme at the 80th birthday party of a billionaire named Ross Sutherland. Unknown to them, two unexpected guests arrive: Liam and his father, a notorious scammer with intentions of his own concerning Sutherland's family.
As Kat and Liam find themselves on a path heading for disaster, a murder forces them to question their safety and alliances. Entrapped in a web of deceit and danger, they discover that trust is a luxury they may not afford, except when it might come from someone equally skilled in deception.
