Seven Lies - James Lasden

Saw this reviewed in the paper and it looked quite intriguing. It's a short novel about a man who leaves East Germany to live in America. There's a thriller aspect - that he's obviously done something to escape communism that other people don't know about, but the narrator links this back to events (and lies) in his childhood.
Overall - I liked it, although I am still not sure what happens at the end (and it's a bit sad too).
score 8/10 (more if i'd understood it better!)
