One of the guests is dead, and another is a killer - but who is the hunter and who is the prey?

Critics Review

PARTY OF LIARS with its stunning prose and simmering tension is a mesmerizing story that’s part gothic horror, part psychological thriller, part contemporary glitz - the narrative is masterfully woven with plenty of twists, and deftly handles heavier subjects like postpartum depression – Ashley Tate
Breathtakingly good, it kept me enthralled to the very last page. A stunningly good debut and beautifully written twisty tale – Valerie Keogh
I couldn’t put it down! PARTY OF LIARS brings the gothic house mystery to Texas, featuring a killer cast, heart-pumping pace, and well-plotted twists and turns – Nina Simon
PARTY OF LIARS explodes from page one: a stunning debut, a riveting page-turner, a brilliant exploration of motherhood and female desire. Every character is rich and complex, and I was stunned by the jaw-dropping twist at the end – Amanda Eyre Ward
Dizzying and dazzling, Cox’s debut slices through the saccharin sweetness of poisonous secrets to reveal the spongy heart of blood-soaked truths… A party to die for – Lindy Ryan
A glamorous party in a lavish mansion and a brilliant cast of characters, none of whom can be trusted. Loved this book - can’t wait to see what Kelsey writes next – Catherine Cooper
Big Little Lies meets Rebecca - the thriller of the summer – Katie Gutierrez
My favourite kind of thriller - fun, twisty, fast-paced, and populated by characters who feel so real you’ll want to invite them (well, some of them) to your next party – Rachel Hawkins
With its beautiful but deadly setting and a complex, interconnected web of characters, PARTY OF LIARS is a page-turner equal parts juicy and poignant. The mystery is deliciously twisty … readers won’t know who to believe, and they will relish every shocking, unpredictable second. I predict this party will be the talk of the town – Laurie Elizabeth Flynn
