Q&A WITH AUTHOR TANEN JONES Have you always been interested in mysteries and thrillers? Why did you decide to write your book based around crime?
First, thank you so much to ID Book Club for choosing The Better Liar! My mother read a lot in the mystery/thriller genre while I was growing up, and I picked up her Michael Gruber books when I was really young—twelve or thirteen. I remember reading Tana French’s In the Woods when I was nineteen. I stayed up all night with that book. I thought, I didn’t know you were allowed to do that in a mystery novel. And of course I love Gillian Flynn and Megan Abbott, and I’m a huge Barbara Stanwyck fan and had seen things like Double Indemnity and read a bit of that classic noir tradition. I wanted to make something out of what I loved that was nevertheless specific to me and my experience of the world: a modern, queer literary neonoir where the women mattered most and the mystery peeled apart into something more complicated than a murderer and a motive.
