A Pagan wedding, a mysterious hooded stranger and a young journalist hungry for a good story gel together to make this a wonderful page-turner not unlike ‘Midsomer Murders’. The story is tightly knitted, leaving the reader guessing until the last chapter, as detectives try to fathom who’s behind the countryside crimes. A very relaxing & enjoyable read, which left me in no doubt that I shall be reading more by this very talented author.
Each book in this fabulous series just keeps getting better and better.
Megan, a journalist for a small newspaper is given a tip off about a so-called accident and decides to do some investigating on her own.
This leads to so many dire consequences, including a stalker, and she finds it difficult to convince people that she is telling the truth.
This book is so well written, and I found it hard to put down.
Very highly recommended.
I have been following this author for several years, as I like the genre she writes in -English police stories reminiscent of Midsomer Murders. Each book she has published is better than the one before and it’s a delight to see how she has matured as a writer both in creating her characters and in the storylines themselves. I loved the way the book centres on Megan and I bonded with her at the beginning – it brings a fresh twist to the storyline. I shall certainly buy every book this author writes in the future. Recommended.
I’ve loved all the Peter Hatherall Mysteries.If you enjoy a detailed mystery with lots of voices and twists, deeply drawn characters, you’ll love Twisted Truth. This one kept me turning the pages all the way through.
Like all the other books in this series, I was glued to my Kindle all the way through. The characters are very believable and Ms Febry is not afraid to give us flawed people who get irritable, are annoying or so daft you want to shake them. This makes the stories all the more realistic. For example, there were moments in the book when I wanted to grab Megan, the young journalist and lock her away for her own good. DI Hatherall and Fiona play a smaller role in the story, but they are challenged severely in having to deal with various other issues that are all somehow interconnected, all the while not really believing there is a real crime to be investigated. They solve the mystery in the end, although I would have liked to know more about what happened to Megan following the final crises. I won’t say more as I don’t want to put in any spoilers. The end of this book is a surprise, as well as being a bit of a cliff hanger, so I’m hoping there will be another in the series.!
Twists and turns kept me on my toes to the very end
I’ve read several of the Peter Hatherall Mystery books and I’ve come back for more because I enjoyed the previous ones. Happily, this is another brilliant story and more is revealed about recurring characters Peter and Fiona, which I liked. In this episode, a young journalist, Megan, is drawn into an investigative journalism project, and the more she digs, the more she becomes consumed by the unfolding story. A dark and dangerous murder/mystery unfolds and is combined with some clever sub-plots to produce a book that it difficult to put down. Well drawn characters provide great suspects for this classic ‘who did it’. Twists and turns kept me on my toes to the very end. Highly recommended.
