“A compelling chase by one monster for another. Provocative, surprising, and rapid-paced.”
- Reed Farrel Coleman, NY Times bestselling author of Blind To Midnight
“An ingenious and masterfully written thriller, No Lie Lasts Forever is filled with a killer’s interesting and twisted insights and a fully realized main character’s authentic struggles in TV journalism. The killer’s chilling correspondences to the journalist, Flynn Martin, launch her on a journey every reader will find harrowing and wholly intriguing. Rarely in a thriller am I compelled to reread passages, but Mark Stevens’ sharp writing had me doing just that. Visceral, cerebral, and spell-binding, No Lie Lasts Forever will grab you and force you to hold on tight until the last page.”
– Christine Carbo, best-selling author of the Glacier Mystery Series
“An appetizing blend of a terrifying glimpse into the mind of a serial killer, tragic secrets, and surprising twists in Stevens' latest nail-biter.”
– Sandra Brannan, author of the Liv Bergen series
“Mark Stevens is a master storyteller. No Lie Lasts Forever brims with unforgettable characters who move like quicksilver through the light and shadows of human transgression and deadly obsession. In prose that is at once fluid and gripping, Stevens summons the haunted voices that whisper inside all of us. A stunning book.”
– Jeffrey Fleishman, author of Good Night Forever
“Mark Stevens’s powerful thriller No Lie Lasts Forever has all the right ingredients for an emotional, suspenseful read. It has a beautifully fleshed-out and flawed protagonist in Flynn Martin, whose professional curiosity and personal need-to-help often lead to her dark and dangerous places. It has bodies—both old and fresh—with questions around the connections between them. It has lots of cops, and Stevens is very careful in making the reader uncertain which ones to trust. And, to the reader’s delight, it has Harry Kugel, a serial killer who prides himself on having “gotten better” without help, this declaration one of many wonderful examples of Kugel’s sociopathic narcissism. In Harry, Stevens has crafted a bad guy for the ages, and the chapters from the killer’s viewpoint will have you checking the locks on your door. No Lie Lasts Forever is a brilliant, compelling read, which is exactly what we’ve come to expect from Mark Stevens.”
