From the time I began to read domestic suspense/thriller genre, I have yet to read a novel like THE FIRST TO LIE by Hank Phillippi Ryan. While I am used to and quite familiar with some of the devices used within, there are numerous other twists that I don't think I have gotten over with, and I also wasn't able to predict the tale very accurately. My favorite thing about THE FIRST TO LIE by Hank Phillippi Ryan include the character of Nora Quinn because of her mysteries as well as her daring-do and I also loved the masks the characters wore when communicating with one another. Reality is also the stuff of dreams, taking a backseat to all the lies, trickery and deceit multiple characters engaged in.
