Michaela soon realises that with a motive on public record, and the evidence stacked against her, she is forced to partner with Special Agent Ryan Rykner of the Australian Federal Police to clear her name. Torn between old loyalties and new innocence, she must choose a side. But even if she does decide to break free from the past, will her old criminal friends allow her secrets to remain buried?
Michaela delves deeper, and steps back into the closeted, mysterious world of drug dealers, motorcycle gang members, and her skills as a confidence artist to prove her innocence. But soon she realises that she may be involved in this crime in a manner she never thought possible, and her past mistakes may yet have come back to haunt her. Michaela is running out of time to uncover the truth and when her allies begin to turn on her the situation escalates until more than her freedom is at stake, now she’s fighting for her life.
Telling Lies is the first book in a series of thrilling novels that delicately walk the line between justice and revenge for the crimes committed against too many women.
