Never Lie, by Freida McFadden

Tricia and Ethan, a married couple are searching for the perfect house and they think they found it in a mansion that once belonged to the prestigious Dr. Adrienne Hale who went missing a couple of years ago. The day they go to view the house, a horrible blizzard strikes leaving them stranded inside. The couple soon starts to see signs that they may not be alone in the home, and after Tricia stumbles on audio tapes recorded by Hale, they realize her disappearance was complex and sinister.

I picked up Never Lie by Freida McFadden not expecting to get hooked on it, but I was, and devoured it in 45 minutes. It has a bunch of plot twists and reading between both Tricia's and Adrienne's POV's unravels a much more complex and sinister story showcasing a humongous web of lies that had been strung. The story uses an unreliable narrator leaving questions arising until the end where everything is revealed leaving an incredibly cunning and thrilling story.
