Fatal Liaison

by Vicki Tyley

Overview

The lives of two strangers become inextricably entangled when they each sign up for a dinner dating agency. Greg's reason for joining has nothing to do with looking for love. His recently divorced sister has disappeared and he's convinced that the agency, or at least one of its clients, may be responsible.

Neither is Megan looking for love. Although single, she only joined at her best friend's insistence--then her friend disappears without a trace. When a client of the dating agency is murdered, suspicion falls on several of the members and Megan and Greg join forces.

Will Megan and Greg solve the mystery, or are they about to step into the same inescapable snare?

About the Author

Based in rural Victoria, Australia, Vicki Tyley writes fast-paced mystery and suspense novels in contemporary Australian settings.

Born in New Zealand, she emigrated with her husband to Australia in 1982. She has travelled extensively, spending a year touring the world before terrorism was an influencing factor. She has lived in the central business districts of large cities, suburbia, idyllic seaside locations, rural areas, bushland, and remote desert mining camps.

In the lead up to her writing career, she worked in a multitude of different industries including banking, stockbroking, importing and wholesaling, human resources, mining, hospitality, civil engineering, and toys, in predominantly accounting, IT and management roles.

All these life experiences are brought to bear in her writing.

Editorial Reviews

One of this author's true talents is presenting a beginning that draws readers into the story and keeps them engaged until the very end. I never felt this story dragged, and I was reluctant to put the story down until I had read every last word. I genuinely liked and cared about the characters in the story. They were developed to the extent that a good balance was reached between the action and the characterization.

If while you're reading you get a feeling that you know who the murderer is, forget it. It's not him. Or him. Or him either. And it's definitely NOT him. So, maybe it's a her? Tyley does a good job keeping the reader guessing until just the right moment.

This is Vicki Tyley's fourth book. It was a two-day read for me. It's easy, enjoyable, captivating reading, and I am eagerly awaiting the release of her fifth – Bitter Nothings, due for release soon.

Book Boogie - Craig Miyamoto

I've read all of Vicki Tyley's books, and all have several qualities in common. All are thrillers or mysteries with multiple suspects or potential resolutions. I've always been convinced each of the primary suspects was guilty at some point, yet the ending still catches me off guard. Tyley's ability to plot a story is the envy of many of her peers. Fatal Liaison keeps this streak alive.

BigAl's Books and Pals - Al Kunz

I wasn't too sure what to expect from this book as I had never heard of Vicki Tyley but it was fantastic from start to finish! I finished it in a day and considering I did 10 hour work day, that says it all really. From the first page you are hooked in and get to know the 2 main characters Greg and Megan and their sub stories...

A great read 10/10 that will keep you guessing until the end!

The Worm

Vicki Tyley has written the story with many twists and turns and, while I had my suspicions of who I thought was killing the ladies, I found myself changing my mind quite often. Fatal Liaison has it all - mystery, suspense, and romance. The characters are well developed; Greg and Megan won my heart from the beginning as they put themselves in one dangerous situation after another. Fatal Liaison is mostly just a suspense-filled mystery, but there is the hint of true love, too.
