2000s: Which is more dangerous, a secret or a lie?
Poppy has a secret.
It was a whirlwind romance. And when Drew, caught up in the moment, suggests that he and Poppy don’t tell each other anything about their past lives, that they live only for the here and now, for the future they are building together, Poppy jumps at the chance for a fresh start.
But it doesn’t take long for Poppy to see that this is a two-way deal. Drew is hiding something from her. And Poppy suddenly has no idea who the man she has married really is, what he is hiding from her or what he might be capable of.
Drew says he has nothing to hide. Drew is lying.
Truth Hurts is not a book for locations as such. It’s set in the fictional village of Linfield in Wiltshire and the book opens in Ibiza. All locations are vague yet it’s the settings – the old house, the new village, the remote landscape that is important here.
A couple, newly married, move into a house. The house and village have secrets. As do they. They try to keep theirs buried, from each other as well as everyone else. But old secrets have a habit of coming to the surface.
Linfield and Thursday House sound like a fresh start with a new husband. However……
