Editor's Review

AudioBook Atlas Editorial Team

Lois Chimimba’s performance is nothing short of brilliant. Her nuanced portrayal of Agnes McLeod and the other characters adds a layer of authenticity to the story, making the suspense palpable. The pacing is masterfully controlled, building tension in quiet moments as effectively as it does during the action sequences. However, some sections felt slightly slow, particularly when delving into legal jargon that could have been more engagingly conveyed. Despite this minor critique, Mina’s writing and Chimimba’s performance ensure a captivating listening experience. ‘The Good Liar’ is a must-listen for fans of literary thrillers and those who appreciate complex moral quandaries.
