Family dysfunction turns deadly in this riveting international thriller... At first glance, the Chedwell Estate - Blessinghurst Manor - with its sprawling grounds and sumptuous Tudor architecture, appears to be a tranquil palace tucked away in the English countryside, but appearances deceive.
After their father's death and their mother's debilitating stroke, siblings Roberto and Stella Chedwell are squabbling over the family treasures. In a last-ditch effort to keep things civil, Stella demands they hire a curator to prevent Roberto from ransacking the estate.
Enter Mikky dos Santos, tenacious artist, forger, and all-round talented criminal. From her first day on the job, Mikky feels like she's being taken for a ride by fancy con artists-most of all by Roberto, who is at once flirtatious and threatening. He's also promised her a reward if she gets the job done swiftly whilst neglecting to account for certain high-end items.
Mikky learns that Roberto had dirty dealings with the mafia and they once had a price on his head.
And there's plenty more she needs to find out.
Author Janet Pywell's storytelling is as mesmerizing and complex as her characters, and you'll find yourself rooting for one character and then turning against them on a dime. As Mikky tries to piece together this puzzle of deception, illicit sex, and thinly-veiled threats, she can't tell anymore which lies are "truthful" and what's just dead wrong. But she'd better hurry-these people are lethal.
Mikky is a uniquely lovable female protagonist: a tough, tattooed, yet vulnerable woman who will steal your heart.
She's a must read for fans of female sleuths. Janet's books are also recommended for fans of Lucy Foley, David Baldacci, Lee Child's Jack Reacher, Tom Clancy's Jack Ryan, Nelson DeMille's John Corey, Vince Flynn's Mitch Rapp, Mark Greaney's Gray Man, Gregg Hurwitz's Orphan X, Robert Ludlum's Jason Bourne, John Sandford's Lucas Davenport, Daniel Silva's Gabriel Allon, Brad Taylor's Pike Logan, Brad Thor's Scot Harvath, and Dan Brown's Robert Langdon.
★★★★★ "Another great entry in an action-packed and intriguing series about a female artist who became a forger who became a photographer who became a thief with a conscience and moral compass of her own. These first four books have me waiting anxiously for the next novel!"
★★★★★ "Truthful Lies" was an enjoyable book to me. There was suspense in each character. In addition, my interest was held to the end; I didn't want to stop reading. The ending was great."
★★★★★ "How is it possible to have 'Truthful Lies', Ms Pywell revealed that in her story about deceit and greed at any cost. Lots of suspense and thrilling action with Mikky at the center making the pages fly to get to the truth."
