For fans of Gone Girl, I Hunt Killers, and TV's How to Get Away with Murder.
Max Cantrell has never been a big fan of the truth, so when the opportunity arises to sell forged permission slips and cover stories to his classmates, it sounds like a good way to make a little money and liven up a boring senior year. With the help of his friends Preston and Parvati, Max starts Liars, Inc. Suddenly everybody needs something and the cash starts pouring in. Who knew lying could be so lucrative?
When Preston wants his own cover story to go visit a girl he met online, Max doesn’t think twice about hooking him up. Until Preston never comes home. Then the evidence starts to pile up—terrifying clues that lead the cops to Preston’s body. Terrifying clues that point to Max as the murderer.
Can Max find the real killer before he goes to prison for a crime he didn’t commit? In a story that Kirkus Reviews called "Captivating to the very end," Paula Stokes starts with one single white lie and weaves a twisted tale that will have readers guessing until the explosive final chapters.

Liars, Inc. is everything mystery lovers expect while reading a thriller novel. We like to be kept on our toes, yank our hair out and try to be one step ahead of the story. Sometimes we succeed in guessing the correct theory, other times… we are completely blown away. This is how I felt after finishing Liars, Inc.
Max Cantrell lives the easy life. So is what it seems when first introduced. But as you read about his life, you realize his life had a rough start. As an orphan, he was in and out of home groups. Until one day he decided he had enough. Until one day he meets the perfect family. A place to call home. A place where he finds a best friend and girlfriend.
There are three things you need to know about Max:
One - his best friend, Preston, is rich. Every girl wants to be with him. He does as he pleases. He met Max while taking surfing classes. Also, he has a history with Max’s girlfriend. And he is obsessed at recording everything. But he is not whom he claims to be.
Two - Max’s girlfriend, Parvati, is a great liar. She lies like there is no tomorrow. She has her parent fooled… and maybe even Max. Even though her parent thinks she’s an angel, they think the worst of Max. They also wished she would date Preston.
Three - Max loves to get in trouble just to spend quality time with Parvati. With such reputation, together with his best friend and girlfriend create Liars, Inc. As they cheat their way to money, only Max finds himself in trouble.
The lies continue.
The danger begins.
Max is trapped and accused of killing his best friend.
In a game of liars, how does Max prove his innocence?
If you're looking for a great read and even pull your hair out, then Liars, Inc is the right book for you!
