Truth Be Told, part of the bestselling Jane Ryland and Jake Brogan series by Agatha, Anthony, Mary Higgins Clark, and Macavity Award-winning author Hank Phillippi Ryan, begins with tragedy: a middle-class family evicted from their suburban home. In digging up the facts on this heartbreaking story--and on other foreclosures-- reporter Ryland soon learns the truth behind a big-bucks scheme and the surprising players who will stop at nothing, including murder, to keep their goal a secret. Turns out, there's more than one way to rob a bank.
Boston police detective Jake Brogan has a liar on his hands. A man has just confessed to the famous twenty-year-old Lilac Sunday killing, and while Jake's colleagues take him at his word, Jake is not so sure. But he has personal reasons for hoping they've finally solved the cold case.
Financial manipulation, the terror of foreclosures, the power of numbers, the primal need for home and family and love. What happens when what you believe is true turns out to be a lie?TRUTH BE TOLD is Hank Phillippi Ryan at her best. She uses all her insider skills to craft a terrific story - smart, edgy, full of more twists and turns than you can ever outguess, and a thrilling read to the very last page. If you love Ryan's books like I do, you're in for a great ride, and if you're picking her up for the first time, you're starting with a winner.
--Linda Fairstein New York Times Best-selling Author "Hank Philippi Ryan weaves a taut web of suspense in TRUTH BE TOLD. Be prepared to lose sleep once you start reading, because you won't want to stop. I couldn't turn the pages fast enough."
--Meg Gardiner New York Times Best-selling Author
