"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.
Terri Blackstock delivers another unputdownable blend of danger, heart, and redemption--proof that even in the darkest circumstances, light and truth still prevail. Pick up Truth Stained Lies and see why millions of readers can't stop turning the pages of her bestselling suspense novels.
Enter the world of the Moonlighters series (Truth Stained Lies, Distortion, Twisted Innocence), where three sisters navigate faith, family, and danger in a gripping journey of truth and second chances.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Blackstock (Intervention series), who crossed over from the secular market to Christian fiction, hits her stride with the opener of The Moonlighter series. When Jay, the brother of Cathy, a former lawyer and now investigative blogger, is falsely accused of murdering his ex-wife, she and her two sisters, Holly and Juliet, team up help their brother and to protect Jackson, their five-year-old nephew. Blackstock has six million books in print, and her writing is not too heavy handed; she offers a powerful scene of the accused, Jay, as he tells Jackson about the death of the boy s mother and his ex-wife. A story rich with texture and suspense, this family murder mystery unfolds with fast pacing, with a creepy clown murder suspect and threatening blog visitor to boot. Through Cathy s eyes readers see her wrestling with her faith and her pastor father s lack of faithfulness to his family: "If her father had only known the havoc he d wrought in his children when he chose his appetites over his family. Would it have mattered?"
