She wanted to write the story of a killer. But some stories can kill you.
Journalist Ann Stackhouse is writing a true-crime book about Maxine Adams, the woman accused of five brutal murders before vanishing from the headlines. When Maxine finally agrees to meet, Ann can’t believe her luck – this book could make her career.
But Maxine has rules. Ann must tell the story her way. The more Ann listens, the more she’s drawn into Maxine’s web of contradictions. Through prison interviews, old police reports and Maxine’s own chilling confessions, Ann begins piecing together a portrait of a woman who is known only as a monster.
As Ann follows Maxine’s cryptic clues, it becomes clear someone is following her and watching her every move. Is Maxine manipulating her? Or is the real killer still out there?
And when obsession turns to fear, Ann faces a chilling choice: break the story… or become part of it.
Dark, twisting and disturbingly believable, Nothing But the Truth blurs the line between fact and fiction. Perfect for fans of Alice Feeney and True Crime Story by Joseph Knox.
