About this listen

A psychological thriller with a shocking twist

1998 - On the morning of her boyfriend’s birthday, Katie Reed left their apartment and never returned…One thing is certain. It will change the lives of everyone around her.

2022 - Tom Beatty is first in line to help his sister when she needs a transplant, but he’s left reeling by his blood results. As he searches for answers, he learns of a young woman who disappeared decades ago, and to uncover the truth, he must find her. But someone wants to keep the past hidden, and delving into it is a dangerous game. One that could be perilous for those closest to him. Can Tom find out what is behind the lies before it’s too late?

Spillin’ the Book Tea:
What an amazing book. It's twisty, peeling back secrets one breadcrumb at a time. The dual timeline between 1998 and 2022 never confused me. The switches were smooth and purposeful. Gulliford’s characters feel real and layered, not cardboard cutouts. Her writing drew me right into each scene. I could picture whatever dark corner or surreal setting she described. Massive thanks to Carol Gulliford for the audiobook of Behind the Lies and the opportunity to provide this candid review!

The Vibes It Brings:
🎭 Psychological suspense
🕰️ Dual‑timeline mystery
😶 Quiet thrills in everyday settings
🧩 Family ties and medical drama
🌒 Secrets hidden in plain sight

Narration:
Narrator Sarah Kempton adds real tension and unease. Her voice shifts undercover, sharp when needed, soft when revealing. She makes every reveal lean and tense. I loved everything about her voice. It boosted the immersive feel.

Final Thoughts:
Behind the Lies grabs you and doesn’t let go until the end. Twist after twist keeps you guessing but never confused. It goes beyond your typical mystery thanks to its dual timelines, emotional undercurrents, and grounded, believable characters. Highly recommended if you like suspense with emotional stakes.
