What happens when the world’s most honest marriage is built on a lie?

River and Leo Greene have built an empire on radical honesty. As hosts of the hit podcast The Greene Room, they’ve shared every intimate detail of their marriage with millions of listeners—teaching them how to live authentically, love deeply, and grieve openly. Their audience believes every word. But River and Leo are hiding a devastating secret: their own daughter’s death, a tragedy they’ve buried so completely, they’ve never spoken her name.

When a mysterious figure known only as The Listener kidnaps their young son, the price for his return is simple: Go live. Tell the truth. Start with the affair. End with the fire.

Trapped in their soundproof studio with the red light blinking, River and Leo are forced to dismantle the carefully crafted performance of their lives—confessing not only their infidelity and fraud, but the hidden grief, professional failure, and the night River set their world on fire.

The Last Good Liar is a piercing exploration of authenticity in the age of performance, a psychological dive into the cost of living a curated life, and a raw portrayal of a marriage unraveling in real time. It asks: Can truth redeem us when the lie has become who we are?

For fans of Celeste Ng, Laurie Frankel, and the intense emotional landscapes of Little Fires Everywhere, this is a novel that will leave you questioning the stories you tell—and the ones you live.
