"In the 'culture wars' narrative of the Republican ascendancy, this slippage represents the greatest con in recent history: while you rush to defend marriage or protect the unborn, please pay no attention to the financier behind the curtain." Continue »

Sliver of Truth

Sliver of Truth Cover

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

The highly anticipated follow-up to the New York Times bestseller Beautiful Lies.

Charged with relentless intensity and kinetic action, and playing out with unnerving suspense on the streets of New York and London, Sliver of Truth delves deep into the shadowy world of Ridley Jones, a terrified but determined young woman at once hunting down a ghost from her past and running for her life.

From Our Staff:

Sliver of Truth continues the tale of Ridley Jones (Beautiful Lies), taking her further into the dark world of her birth father — the man she thought was a beloved uncle. Just as her life is beginning to make sense, she is thrown again into a world where no one can be trusted. Every lie uncovered seems to lead to deeper treachery as Jones pursues the truth about her father's life.

Unger's writing style is unique, and the characterizations are three-dimensional and incredibly believable. The plot is inventive and offers no pat ending with the heroine riding into the sunset with the hero. With this sequel, Unger has made it onto my list of authors who can only be read when I don’t have to worry about my bedtime, or when I think my boss (Serra, are you reading this?) won't notice me napping the next day!
Recommended by our staff at Powells.com

Review:

“Double feints and triple suspense plays . . . make Sliver of Truth compulsive reading.”
