      How well do you know your family? Sisters Leslie and Robin have been estranged for a decade. But they must reunite if they are to claim the fortune their father left them. When Leslie discovers her sister's body in her apartment, Leslie knows she needs another plan. She needs the money. Mary, an aspiring actress, who spends her nights slinging beers at a seedy restaurant, would do anything to start her life over. When Leslie offers her a huge sum of money and the chance to be someone else - to be Robin - she takes it. But Robin's life isn't as straight forward as she thought it would be. And Leslie seems to have secrets and a past of her own. THE BETTER LIAR is clever, dark and addictive - perfect if you loved GONE GIRL and LITTLE DEATHS.
