Count My Lies

Count My Lies is a suspense thriller centered on Sloane Caraway, a narrator whose small lies begin as a coping mechanism and then pull her into increasingly dangerous territory. The book is presented as a fast-paced, read-in-one-night domestic thriller aimed at readers who enjoy twist-driven fiction and psychologically tense storytelling. Penguin India’s listing identifies it as a May 2025 publication with 400 pages, and the retailer copy describes the story as a chilling suspense novel for fans of Lisa Jewell.[1] Crossword’s product description likewise frames it as a domestic thriller following Sloane Caraway, whose harmless fibs lead her into a web of danger after a chance encounter at a playground.[2] The combination of a compulsive liar protagonist, a wealthy married couple, and a gradual escalation of deception suggests a narrative built around unreliable narration, social impersonation, and suspense. Based on the publisher and retailer descriptions, the novel belongs to contemporary psychological suspense and domestic thriller fiction, with an emphasis on secrecy, class tension, and the consequences of dishonesty.[1][2]
