THE TRUTH IS NOT THE TRUTH After a bad breakup, all Verity Thayer wants is to spend the next few days moping in her apartment, eating chocolate, and hoping the Universe will leave her the hell alone for a while. That lasts until a mysterious note arrives in her mailbox: Your mother didn’t die of cancer. And your father isn’t who you think he is. With her brother away with his fiancée and Alastair Stone on the other side of the world, Verity sets off on her own to track down the note’s sender. But finding the secrets of murder and betrayal buried in her past isn’t the worst part. Someone doesn’t want her to know the truth—and they’re willing to kill to make sure she never learns it. An Unexpected Truth takes place following the novel The Madness Below and the novella Boys' Night (Way) Out.
