Layer of Lies is an easy quick-read thriller. If you’re in the mood for a light mystery about everyday people pulled into impossible situations, you’ll probably enjoy it.
Great for those times you want a mystery, but nothing that will give you nightmares or make you want to double-lock your doors.
I’m a big Dickson fan, and it was interesting to see her earlier work and see how she has evolved and developed her voice as a writer.

I enjoyed the drama and excitement of this book. It kept me entertained with no down time. I love the plot and the determination of the main characters. The author does a great job of details and keeping you in suspense throughout the story. I am glad that I read this book. I am going to be looking into more works from this author!

Talk about brain teasers
I kept trying to predict what would happen but I never managed to get it right. Twists and turns galore!

Great story
Really enjoyed this book, wasn't sure at first if I would get into it. Glad that I did, and will read more.

Very strange mystery
Sally has come home from work and Dan her live in boyfriend is not home. He was there went she went to sleep the previous night, but she could not find anything that showed he had been in the house from the time she awoke to now. Has he just left her or has something more sinister happened. No one seems to believe Sally when she says their relationship was fine. Get on board for more twists and turns than a roller coaster. The only problem I had was the reluctance to involve the police as the story unfolds.
All in all a good book

An Exciting Story
I enjoyed Ms Dickson'!s writing style and the story line. It kept me interested throughout and I really liked her characters' personalities. I'll definitely will give her other books a try!

Suspenseful. However the main female character becomes so whiny two thirds of the way thru. That makes me want to pass on other books she has written.

So I guess I need 19 more words or I can't support
Only 7 more to go which is ridiculous

Surprisingly exciting
I recommend this book to anyone who enjoys crime fiction. It is not just for women, even though it was written with a woman as the main character. The surprise come midway through the story, so be patient. It's worth the wait.

Book was just ok.
Pretty predictable ending. I did enjoy reading a book with no real smut or filthy words for a change.
Sort of all over the place at, times.
Don't want to read another anytime soon.

In this together
Slow start and once I got into the book wanted to see justice done. Not fond of the ending but guess the title "layers of Lies" sets the ending and opens the door for a sequel.

An enjoyable thriller with quite a few plot twists and surprises. Another great book from a writer who knows how to keep your attention.

Great story line
Great story wished it didn't end that way. They should have a part 2, so we know what happened to all of them.
