NOTHING BUT THE TRUTH
Nothing but the Truth
 READ PRAISE!


When San Francisco lawyer Dismas Hardy gets a call saying his wife never picked the kids up from school, hes worried. Frannie's a great mother. Turns out there's a good explanation: She's in jail.

Unbeknownst to her husband, Frannie has just appeared before a grand jury—and refused to share a crucial piece of information about her friend, Ron, who's accused of killing his wife. Now it's up to Dismas to race the clock and find a culprit, all the while wondering: Why would his wife go to jail to protect another man? Who really killed Bree Beaumont—and why? He's looking for the truth. But he's not quite sure he wants to find it.

PRAISE

"You'll not unravel this one until the last gavel falls."
   —Tampa Tribune

"Riveting.... One of Lescroart's best tales yet."
   —Chicago Tribune

"Secrets and lies are the leitmotifs in Lescroart's 11th novel—a crisp, engaging thriller that could well be subtitled 'This Time It's Personal.' The novel's pacing is reminiscent of classic Ross Macdonald, where a week's worth of events are condensed into a few hours . . . [a] winning thriller."
   —Publishers Weekly (starred review)

"San Francisco attorney Dismas Hardy [is] at his most engaging here . . . a true star in the lawyer-hero firmament."
   —Kirkus Reviews (starred review)

"Lescroart orchestrates a cadre of multi-dimensional characters through a plot full of political subterfuge and action without losing track of the subtlety of modern personal relationships."
   —Library Journal

"Plenty of satisfying twists in a machine-gun paced narrative before [a] breathless courtroom climax."
   —Books Magazine (London)
