This is a story about a great deception, a great truth, about war, about revenge and about love, the strength of which is tested by countless trials. The novel takes the reader from a small Greek town during World War II to the United States during the heyday of Hollywood. The boy Niko becomes an unwitting tool of the Nazis' monstrous lies. After realizing what had happened, he would no longer tell a word of the truth, but would spend his life changing masks and trying to find a way to receive forgiveness from his loved ones.Can love atone for the most terrible sins?Will a family whose life has been torn apart by concentration camps be able to reunite and take away their pain?Will propaganda be able to destroy the truth forever and emasculate the hearts and souls of people?For the first time in Russia, a new novel from a writer whose books have sold more than 40 million copies worldwide."The Little Liar is not only a story about innocent victims of Nazism and broken destinies. This is a fascinating family saga about all of us, those who strive to love and be loved, those who try to distinguish truth from lies, those who are looking for their way to the White Tower (the abode of forgiveness, for which a person can do literally anything). Roman doesn't let go of his embrace until the last page. And until the last page, we will still doubt whether the power lies in the truth or in what we believe it to be?" - Anna Myasnikova, head of the Bombora creative projects group "The Little Liar is a story told by the Truth. This is not just a book about the Nazi occupation of Greece and not another novel of growing up against the background of the horrors of war and extermination, but an inoculation of humanity and compassion. And sometimes it's just a timeless mirror worth looking into." — Polina Pars, literary blogger
