English Summary/英文概要： “[A] richly atmospheric tale. You can imagine Hitchcock curling up with this one.”
—USA Today
Author Hallie Ephron’s fast paced and disturbingly creepy Never Tell a Lie is a page-turning thrill ride that maestro Alfred Hitchcock would have been proud to call his own. A descent into gripping suburban terror, this stunner by the Ellen Nehr Award-winning mystery reviewer for the Boston Globe has been called “a snaky, unsettling tale of psychological suspense” by the Seattle Times. Fans of Mary Higgins Clark, Harlan Coben, and classic gothic mystery will adore this supremely suspenseful and consistently surprising story of a yard sale gone terribly wrong.
Chinese Summary/中文概要： 「這是一本令人驚奇的大發現，它不僅令人讚嘆、冷酷既逼真！如果有人用【使人不忍釋手】（unputdownable）形容詹姆士‧凱因(James M. Cain)的作品，那麼本書將是少數能達到此標準的傑作之一！」 — 蘿拉‧李普曼（Laura Lippman，著有《愛麗絲與蘿妮》、《貝塞尼家的姊妹》、《要命的搖滾》、《巴爾的摩藍調》等書） 這個故事得從一個庭院舊貨出售講起。
身懷八個月又一週身孕的Ivy和丈夫David在三年前購買了一間舊維多利亞時期的房子，Ivy希望丈夫能將這屋子整理乾淨並將其中房子原有的一些老舊的電器品、一箱從1960年起的《國家地理雜誌》及四件黑羊毛大衣都清理賣掉…
不久後，來了一名和Ivy一樣還有身孕的女子，但她並沒有買東西的意圖，反而問起之前屋裡的一個綠色的天鵝盤…這位名叫Melinda的女子，原來是Ivy和David之前的中學同學，她小的時候經常在這房子裡玩。David便帶她進屋裡看看，但從此之後她再也沒有出來過…
在警方的認定下David的嫌疑最大，而她的妻子Ivy也漸漸發現丈夫許多隱藏的秘密，這背後牽扯一連串的背叛、謊言及欺瞞…在這部故事緊湊及佈局令人毛骨悚然的心理驚悚小說中，讀者將面對我們如何了解我們所愛的人，及我們將義無反顧的保護過去的秘密！(VL)
