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.

Library Journal Review
Former attorney Cathy Cramer blogs about homicide investigations, but she is thrust into the action when her brother is accused of murdering his ex-wife. A few days earlier, Cathy received an anonymous note warning her that her judgmental posts would come back to haunt her. With her two sisters, she works to find the real murderer, clear her brother's name, and keep her nephew safe. VERDICT Crisp prose, an engaging story, and brisk pacing make this thriller another home run for Blackstock (Downfall). Recommend it to readers who enjoy material by Lynette Eason and Erin Healy.
