Summary
Truth is a novel about a man, a family, a city. It is about violence, murder, love, corruption, honour and deceit. And it is about the search for truth.
At the close of a long day, Inspector Stephen Villani stands in the bathroom of a luxury apartment high above the city. In the glass bath, a young woman lies dead, a panic button within reach.
So begins the sequel to Peter Temple’s bestselling masterpiece, The Broken Shore, winner of the Gold Dagger for Best Crime Novel.

Critics Review
‘Temple’s characters are complex, his plots complicated, his world smudged if not outright dirty…You want a mindless beach read? Skip this. You want to be bitch-slapped into full attention by a master? Come ahead.’ * Head Butler *
