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.

ease of listening

love the delivery by Mr Keeble. Having listened to the previous titles in this series I felt the need to say how much I'm enjoying the storeylines & character development. easy listening and very engaging. really like the characterisation by Mr Keeble. he brings the characters to life and makes them 3 dimensional. 😃

Not long enough

Love this series. Great narration as usual from Mr Keeble. I felt this book was a bit rushed and not long enough to better develop the characters. Not as good as previous books, but still enjoyable. Would probably not bother with the next book if it is equally as short.

Easy to follow

Over a very good listen. Occasionally the narrator over dramatises situations that don’t warrant it and there is an amount of overworking a situation

This Series just gets better & better ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

I love all of Sally Rigby's different series of books, but this one just might be my favourite. The ever growing friendship and gentle teasing between Seb & Birdie, is beautifully written, as are all the twists & turns of their cases.
Wonderful writing and the incomparable narration of Jonathan Keeble, make these books pure joy to listen to.
