I am so glad I stumbled across Christiane Heggan a few months ago. She has never let me down, and she didn't with this book either. It was a great mystery/suspense with just a touch of romance. It kept me guessing until the end. A definite page-turner.

WHERE THE TRUTH LIES is a fabulous romantic suspense starring two wonderful lead characters with a mutual interest in solving the homicide that initially looks like an obvious crime of passion, but soon turns into much more. The subplots involving the townsfolk, contraband, and the Baxters augment the prime story line of Matt and Grace teaming up with love in an investigation that is filled with red herrings and fabulous twists and turns. Christiane Heggan is at her best with this winner.
