Lying Beside You

Cyrus Haven Series, Book 3

De: Michael Robotham

Narrado por: Joe Jameson

Cyrus Haven and Evie Cormac return in this “expertly paced and psychologically acute” (Kirkus Reviews, starred review) thriller from Michael Robotham that’s “one of his best, suspenseful and hard to put down” (Stephen King).

Twenty years ago, Cyrus Haven survived a family massacre. The killer? His brother Elias.

Now Elias is applying for release from a secure psychiatric hospital—and Cyrus is expected to forgive and welcome him home. In this “brilliant novel” (The Globe and Mail, Toronto), Elias is returning to a very different world. Cyrus is now a successful psychologist, working with the police, sharing his house with Evie Cormac, a damaged and gifted teenager who can tell when someone is lying.

When a man is murdered and his daughter Maya Kirk disappears, Cyrus is called in to profile the killer and help piece together Maya’s last hours. Soon, a second victim is taken, and Evie is the only person who glimpsed the man behind the wheel. But there’s a problem. Only two people believe her. One is Cyrus.

The other is the killer.

Perfect

You will not find a better story , performance or better written novel this year. Robotham is a master and this series with Cyrus and Evie just gets better.

Robotham the Reliable

I can always count on Mr Robotham to deliver great characters, and I really enjoy this eccentric pairing of Evie and Cyrus. Plot was okay. It’s probably just me but I’m sick to death of baby related stuff. On the other hand the addition of Cyrus’ dangerous schizophrenic brother was very interesting. Brought to mind a famous character in everyone’s favorite American novel, which would be a big spoiler if I named it. Overall satisfying. Looking forward to more from Evie and Cyrus. And remember: you can’t have the attic, and buttons are important.

The entire series is great!

I discovered this series on one of the Audible sales and am glad I did. Absolutely loved the first two with the third being just a little bit less loved due to the conclusion of the mystery surrounding Evy’s past. Definitely start with book 1 - it’s really a great listen in all aspects!

Great series

I hope there’s a fourth as I really care about these characters! Exceedingly well read. Joe is an amazing reader!

love the character Cyrus and his knowledge

I didn't get how the Title was related to the book. must've missed that somehow

Best of the series so far

Of the 3 books I’ve listened to, this is the best so far, can’t fair to listen to the last one.

Love this series

I loved this book. Some things were a little unbelievable, but I really love this series🙏🏽

Another good one!

I’ve read all of Robotham’s books and thoroughly enjoyed them all. I didn’t think he would be able to create another character after Joe with Parkinson’s, but this one and Evie are great together and I can’t wait for the next one!

What a page turner!

I have to say that this definitely qualifies as a page turner. I was up all night finishing it! It takes a really good book to keep me from falling asleep as someone is reading it to me through the night.

At the end of the last book I was thinking that Robotham had tidily wrapped up all Cyrus’ concerns and Evie seemed squared away - where would Cyrus go from there? This book is a great answer. Thoroughly enjoyed.

Another hit!

The Cyrus Haven series are so good. Well written and perfectly performed. I pray for more in this series.
