Publisher Description

A USA Today Bestseller!

Bestselling and award-winning author David Ellis delivers a fast-paced, twisty thriller that will surprise readers at every turn.


Leo Balanoff is a diagnosed pathological liar with unthinkable skeletons in his family's closet. He's also a crusading attorney who seeks justice at all costs. When a ruthless drug dealer is found dead and Leo’s fingerprints show up on the murder weapon, no one believes a word he says. But he might be the FBI’s only shot at taking down the dealer’s brutal syndicate.

Risk his life going undercover for the feds or head straight to prison for murder? Leo accepts the FBI’s offer—but it comes with a price, including a collision course with his ex, Andi Piotrowski, a former cop and “the one who got away.” Forced to walk a tightrope between an ambitious FBI agent and a cruel, calculating crime boss, Leo’s trapped in a corner. But he has more secrets than anyone realizes, and a few more cards left to play …

Surprised Face with Open Mouth“Oh my GOSH are all David Ellis' books this good?! I haven't read a book that fast in a LONG time! The Best Lies by David Ellis is a twisty tale about corruption and human trafficking. Even when you think you have something figured out..you don't. I really enjoyed how twisty this one was. There were times I was confused, but if I kept reading my questions were eventually answered. I love how this one was weaved and strung together. Never, until the very last page, did I have any of it figured out. In the beginning the multitude of POVs can be frustrating and confusing, but I promise if you stick with it the ride is worth it. Read if you enjoy: 🔪 corruption 🔪 twisty tales 🔪 thrillers 🔪 unreliable narrators 🔪 undercover”
