Spare Me The Truth by CJ Carver is a roller-coaster of a read, full of twists and turns that will keep you riveted.
Dan Forrester, suffering from dissociative amnesia, is trying to piece his life back together after the tragic death of his young son. While shopping in a supermarket with his daughter, he is approached by a woman who claims to be from his past and tells him everything he remembers about his life – and his son – is a lie.
Grief-stricken Grace Reavey, a GP, is threatened at her mother’s funeral. She has to pay an enormous amount of money owed by her late mother or lose everything. But Grace doesn’t have the money. She has no idea where her mother had hidden such a huge amount of money.
Lucy Davies, forced from the Met by her own maverick behaviour, feels the need to prove herself in her new rural post. She investigates the abductions and murders of several victims who are linked solely by the fact that they are all bipolar and taking the same medication.
Dan, Grace and Lucy are plunged into a conspiracy that will test each of them to their limits as they hunt for the truth. As their respective investigations become further and further entwined, it becomes clear that at the centre of this tangled web is a threat more explosive than any of them could have imagined.
I highly recommend this book to readers who love thrillers. You won’t be disappointed!
