Publisher's summary

The truth will set you free...except when it doesn't...

Private investigator Sebastian Clifford and his partner Birdie step into the world of celebrity when a star of children's TV turns to them for help. She's being blackmailed by someone who knows about her murky past, and she's desperate to keep it hidden. But silence comes at a price, and it's one she can't afford to pay.

Clifford, who knows better than anyone what it's like to be punished for one mistake, agrees to help. As they dig deeper, they discover that everyone has secrets, and some are dark enough to kill for. Can they find the blackmailer before it's too late and save the reputation—and the life—of a beloved star?

Fear the Truth is book five in the bestselling Detective Sebastian Clifford thriller series and is a perfect blend of mystery, mayhem, and danger.

Not the best of the series, but still fun, fun

I really love the working relationship between Sub and Birdie. They have great chemistry and it’s so refreshing that it isn’t romantic.

another good - but too short

if i hadn't been looking forward to read this next installment I would have waited on it to go on sale. blowing a credit on a 5 hour 59 minute book seems wasteful. a couple of the others were well over 7 hours. other than that it was good.

Solid Detective Story

All the books in this series are traditional detective stories, with mildly complex plots and likable characters. There is not too much detail and description, just the right amount to move the plot along. I personally think the first three books are stronger than the later ones, but I enjoy all of them. A plus is that the narration is excellent.

Another great book in this series

Like books 1-4 in this series, this one was well-written, had interesting characters, and top-tier narration.

Now for Book 6! It's in my wish list, and looking forward to its release in April.
