Description

New York Times and USA TODAY bestselling suspense author Blackstock asks, When truth doesn’t make sense, will lies prevail?

“Crisp prose, an engaging story, and brisk pacing make this thriller another home run for Blackstock.” —Library Journal, starred review

Cathy Cramer is a former lawyer and investigative blogger who writes commentary on high-profile homicides. When she finds a threatening note warning her that she’s about to experience the same kind of judgment and speculation that she dishes out in her blog, Cathy writes it off as mischief . . . until her brother’s wife is murdered and all the “facts” point to him. The killer has staged the crime to make the truth too far-fetched to believe. Working to solve the murder and clear her brother’s name, Cathy and her two sisters, Holly and Juliet, moonlight as part-time private investigators. Juliet, a stay-at-home mom of two boys, and Holly, a scattered ne’er-do-well who drives a taxi, put aside their fear to hunt down the real killer.

Stakes rise when their brother’s grieving five-year-old son is kidnapped. As police focus on the wrong set of clues, the three sisters and their battered detective friend are the only hope for solving this bizarre crime, saving the child, and freeing their brother.

  • So awful

    This book was bad. It was so predictable I thought a child wrote it, and the writing just isn't good. Plus it felt almost like propaganda from some right-wing Christian group. The whole book was focused SO much around God with undercurrents of anti-abortion that it was somewhat offensive to someone who isn't religious. Maybe if that's your thing you'll enjoy it--but I sure didn't.
  • Amazing book!

    This was an excellent book. This story doesn't drag on for hundreds of pages, it was simple and to the point. Loved it! I also like the fact that there is no adult content, suitable for readers 12+ I would say.
  • A page turning page turner

    I love Terri Blackstock and have read all but a couple of her books. I've been anxiously awaiting this book and was so excited when I got it. I was disappointed though once I started reading it. It was boring and predictable which almost none of her books are. It didn't get good till about the last 50 pages and the only reason I kept going was because I knew how good her other books are. I will still definitely be getting her next book because every other book of hers I've read except for the last book in the Intervention series I've loved. Even though I didn't like this book I still love Terri Blackstock and highly recommend her other books.
