Bestselling and award-winning author David Ellis delivers a fast-paced, twisty thriller that will surprise readers at every turn.

Leo Balanoff is a crusading attorney with unthinkable skeletons in his closet. He's also a diagnosed pathological liar. When a predatory gangster with a long list of victims is found dead and Leo's fingerprints show up on the murder weapon, no one believes a word he says in his defense. But he might be the FBI's only shot at taking down the gangster's even more lethal boss.

Leo accepts the FBI's offer-but it comes with a price, including a collision course with his ex, Andi Piotrowski, a former cop and ""the one who got away."" Anyone else forced to walk this tightrope between an ambitious FBI agent and a cruel, calculating crime boss would fail. But this isn't Leo's first balancing act, and he still has a few tricks up his sleeve...

Just read it!” – Karen Dionne, #1 internationally bestselling author of The Marsh King's Daughter “The Best Lies is an addictive, whip-smart thriller. David Ellis is a master at writing keep-you-up-all-night books, and this is no exception.” — Samantha Downing, internationally bestselling author of A Twisted Love Story “It is truly the perfect thriller: twisty, surprising, and not at all predictable….It’s one of those books where everything is connected in a way that makes finishing it feel like getting a gift wrapped up in a bow. If you’re looking for your next favorite thriller, you will not be disappointed in this.” — The EveryGirl “David Ellis returns with a gripping thriller featuring a very slippery truth….
