Lie (Mentira)

Eva Ramos has made lying her profession. Hired by an enigmatic man, she arrives in a village isolated by snow, where everyone is hiding something. The new novel by Juan Gómez-Jurado, one of the most widely read thriller authors in the world, following the global phenomenon of the Red Queen saga.

Eva Ramos does not exist. She is a fabricated identity: that of a professional liar trained by an enigmatic man, who has turned her into a key piece in illegal operations.

Lie is a mystery thriller set in a closed environment, where a group of isolated and opposing characters become suspects of one another while the truth is constructed and distorted before the reader’s eyes, turning lies into a narrative weapon:

“My job is to lie, but I won’t do it with you. I respect your intelligence too much.

Or perhaps it is the fear of imminent death that makes me tell you the truth.

I will not lie to you, although you will watch me lie to others.

I guarantee that you have never seen anything like this.

MY NAME IS NOT EVA RAMOS. YOU ARE GOING TO CALL ME THAT.”

Following the global phenomenon of Red Queen, which has captivated millions of readers around the world, Juan Gómez-Jurado returns with this successful thriller.
