Review of Truth Will Out by N. J. Hatton

A propulsive and unmissable debut from the next Harlan Coben! Psychological thriller fans will eat this up and be hungry for more.

Truth Will Out blends police procedure with questionable morality and constant ‘what if’ moments to tell the tale of one man’s desperate decision. Main character and criminal lawyer, Jack, is rushing his pregnant wife to hospital at just 23 weeks when he hits a boy on a bike. So begins his dilemma as he must choose whether to come clean now or wait until his own child is safe.

A masterclass in pace and storytelling, this is a novel that will force you into the main character’s shoes and have you spiralling into a moral grey area. With many twists and turns, it’s truly unputdownable.
