Shortly after that canine exhumes that bone from the sand, Isa receives an unsigned text in the dead of night that reads simply: “I need you.” Isa instantly knows what the text means and who sent it - even though she and the sender, Kate Atagon, have not seen each other since they were wayward schoolgirls nearly two decades ago at Salten House, a mediocre boarding school near the English Channel. Our narrator here is Isa Wilde, a new mother living in North London. There’s even a haunted house, a dark and stormy night, a baby in peril and climactic trials by flood and fire. This story stays scrupulously within the lines: to the degree it satisfies, it does so because - like a Lifetime movie - its premise, setting and characters are so comfortably broken-in. Hitch would have more of a challenge, though, making “The Lying Game” into something memorable. Were Alfred Hitchcock still around, he surely would have snapped up the rights. “The Lying Game,” by Ruth Ware (Gallery/Scout Press)īlame my dismay at the weak opening of “The Lying Game” on the ingenuity of Ware’s previous novel, the best-selling “The Woman in Cabin 10.” That tale took place on a labyrinthine yacht on the high seas and was infused with claustrophobic menace.
