First Lie Wins

This book is a fantastic thriller. It does not have your typical whodunnit plot, which seems to be the premise every thriller being published these days.

First Lie Wins is about a woman named Evelyn Porter. Her childhood did not have some memorable moments rather filled with deceit. Years later, she seems to have a stable life with her boyfriend Ryan Sumner. At least that's what you would think. But, Evelyn Porter isn't her real name. And Ryan isn't her boyfriend but a mere assignment. Her assignment gets locked in jeopardy when she is at crossroads with her past. Why she is with Ryan, who endangers her assignment and why she does what she does is the remainder of the story.

You should definitely read this one for a different take on the thriller genre. I have been bored to death with every thriller book having the central theme of a dead body and who the killer is. Although it has similar plot points throughout, I must say Ashley Elston has done a commendable job in captivating the readers from the get-go. It does not have any mind-blowing twists but it is definitely worth a read!
