Books: The Liar's Chair

Author: Rebecca Whitney

Published by: Pan Macmillan

Overview: Rachel Teller and her husband David seem to be a match made in heaven with the perfect life. However, not everything is as transparent as it seems. David is the ultimate control freak and instead of facing her challenges, Rachel secretly turns to the bottle. During one of her drunken episodes Rachel kills a man during a hit and run, David covers up the crime and insists they pretend it never happened. Rachel is haunted by her guilt and starts to crack, their 'perfect' life starts to unravel and they both become dark and self-destructive. In the end they're forced to face their demons for their own sanity.
