The Liar's Handbook by Keren David

The Liar's Handbook by Keren David

A raw and timely drama about undercover police officers and the consequences of such long term operations; this twisting and compelling thriller is inspired by real-life events and challenges perceptions of identity, truth and family. River's life is blown apart when his mum invites her new boyfriend into their home and their lives. River is instantly suspicious of Jason – he seems fake, too good to be true. At school, River's routine fibs are escalating into something more serious, and his teacher gives him a notebook in the hope he can channel his fantasies into creative writing instead. And so, River begins The Liar's Handbook, and an investigation into Jason. But what he uncovers is a terrible deception involving his biological father, the police force and his mum's environmental campaign group…but will anyone take his findings seriously? Particularly suitable for struggling, reluctant and dyslexic readers aged 12+
