Another 5-star masterpiece from Zee David. I swear, I never knew I enjoyed mysteries so much until I started reading this series, and a few more that she is working on. She blows my mind every time. I started highlighting important parts of the book and leaving myself little notes, like my first thought after reading something, so that when book 4 hits (YAY!!), I can skim my highlights and notes to remind myself instead of rereading the whole book. Not that I would mind reading these awesome books for a second time, but it's time-consuming. But what I am getting at is, if you look through my notes, you would see a ton of "HOLY CRAPS," "Wow," and "That was totally unexpected." And it's funny. I thought I had it all figured out halfway through. And I wasn't even close, mostly. I wasn't sure how she was going to pull off an even better book 3 after the first two. The first two were more centered around Brie and how she was entangled in the case. Once that was over, I had no idea how David was going to pull another story out of this and make it just as good, but my God, she did it. And Sally's character, OMG. She surprised the heck out of me! Same with V0rn. I would have sworn things were going to play out differently with him. (I'm trying really hard not to give away spoilers!) And then there was that mind-blowing ending. A simple phone call, and now I am DYING to read book 4. One thing I am grateful for is that David is a quick writer. She has multiple series going on; I don't know how she keeps them straight in her head! But she pops them out fairly quickly, yet you could never tell that from the quality of the stories. She puts some serious thought into these mysteries. I think they would make great TV, but the book is always better. And these books are fantastic! Highly recommended. <3

Calling Nancy Drew!

“Her Web of Lies” is a fun read about a reporter that follows an anonymous tip on a deadly fire that is about to happen. Five people are affected, just as the tip warned. So many suspects. So many twists. And a personal tie to where the fire takes place and a suspect. No spoilers from me. Recommended read for lovers of mystery and suspenseful plot twisters.

In the entangled realm of mystery and intrigue, David Z. masterfully weaves a narrative tapestry in his latest novel, "Her Web of Lies." The tale unfurls against the backdrop of a tragic fire that claimed the lives of five individuals. Yet, this is no ordinary conflagration; it is a meticulously planned orchestration of death that sets the stage for a riveting exploration of conspiracy and deceit.

At the helm of this literary journey is the protagonist, the intrepid reporter Brie Owen. Owen's character is a testament to Z.'s narrative prowess, meticulously sculpted with a blend of dialogue finesse and nerves of steel. As the narrative unfolds, Owen takes center stage in the relentless pursuit of truth, navigating a complex web of lies with a tenacity that captivates the reader's imagination.

The plot is a symphony of suspense and investigation, orchestrated with a keen eye for detail. Z.'s portrayal of the characters is nothing short of brilliant; each figure is crafted with meticulous attention, contributing to the overall richness of the narrative. The ensemble cast complements Owen's character, adding layers to the story's depth and complexity.

One of the standout features of "Her Web of Lies" lies in its ability to keep the reader on the edge of their seat. The narrative is a rollercoaster of twists and turns, unveiling a sinister plot that challenges preconceptions and demands attention to the very last page. David Z.'s literary jargons are skillfully employed, enhancing the atmosphere of mystery and contributing to the overall authenticity of the investigative journey.

As the layers of deception are peeled away, a quote from the book resonates profoundly: "In the shadows, truth often wears a disguise." This thematic underpinning encapsulates the essence of "Her Web of Lies," where the shadows conceal a reality far more intricate than meets the eye.

Her Web of Lies transcends conventional mystery novels, delving into the sinister realms of illegal organ markets with a finesse that leaves readers on the edge. Z.'s literary jargons weave a tale where the shadows conceal not only the truth of a tragic fire but also the macabre dealings of a seemingly benevolent social worker.

In conclusion, David Z.'s "Her Web of Lies" is a compelling foray into the realms of mystery and suspense, where the boundaries between truth and deception blur. With a cast of characters that leave an indelible mark, and a narrative that keeps readers guessing until the final revelation, Z. delivers a literary masterpiece that lingers in the mind long after the last page is turned.

Zee David turns up the heat in Her Web of Lies, the gripping third installment of the Brie Owen Mystery Series. With a fire that leaves five dead and evidence pointing in one clear direction, Brie is faced with a choice—trust the facts or listen to an informant whose information suggests something more sinister at play.

The tension is razor-sharp as Brie untangles a mystery where every clue raises more questions than answers. Was it a tragic accident, or is there a web of deceit waiting to ensnare her? As the stakes rise, so does the suspense, making it impossible to put this book down.

If you love fast-paced mysteries with strong female leads, unexpected twists, and high-stakes investigations, Her Web of Lies delivers all that and more. Brie Owen’s latest case will keep you guessing until the very last page!.

[Bakhsh The Reader · Rating 5 out of 5]

"Her Web of Lies" by David Z is a thought-provoking journey into the interplays of truth, untruth, and power. Leading protagonist Brie's investigation into the fire leads deeper into an exploration of the wider societal structures that espouse and enable lies.

Through Z's excellent ability at suspense and tension, the novel interrogates and questions the reality and modes of manipulation with which such truths can be fabricated. The characters are artistically created as embodiments of the paradox and contradiction inherent in human nature.

And the conclusion, it is one inner irritating read with a thought-provoking end, whether you are called 'a literary fiction buff' or 'a thriller enthusiast'.

This audiobook was great - really enjoyed the voiceover. The story was interesting with lots of twists and turns and allusions to other stores about Brie Owens that made me want to go learn more about her story and other mysteries. This one was great with Brie unraveling mysteries if a small town and included complex characters with layers and ways to keep you guessing.

I enjoyed the narration of Sophie Bloor, who brought the suspense to your ears.


I thought I had it all figured out halfway through. And I wasn't even close,
The plot is against the backdrop of a fire that claimed the lives of five individuals. A fire that was meticulously planned. Planed to kill. Such double dealing conspiracy and deceit.

Great thriller.

[Deedra · Rating 4 out of 5]

I enjoyed the story,as far as it went. The narration was good,but there were issues with fast talking,repeated sentences and words,and sometimes I wasn;t sure who was speaking or thinking. Sophie Bloor has a nice voice though. I was given this book free for an honest review.
