Truth on the Brink: a novel
They are determined to prove a boy’s innocence.
But the boy has already confessed to murder.
The truth could solve everything…or destroy it.
When coach Case Reynolds witnesses his senior captain, Devlin James, get attacked by an opposing player during a football game, he chalks it up to an unfortunate consequence of a heated rivalry.
But everything changes when Case’s friend Jack Masterson knocks on his door the next morning with tragic news. Devlin’s attacker has been found dead at the bottom of Logan’s Bluff.
Devlin is the prime suspect, and Jack—who is romantically involved with Devlin’s mother—is determined to prove the boy’s innocence with the help of Case and their genius friend Jet Townsend.
There is one major Devlin has confessed to the murder and is refusing to say another word.
In Truth on the Brink, a trio of lifelong friends comes together one last time as what may be the only hope for a boy on the verge of a ruined life. The journey will test their friendships, pit them against the people they love most, and take them and their families to the brink of disaster atop Logan’s Bluff— and beneath the ominous shadow it casts in directions they never imagined.

Riveting!
Reviewed in the United States on September 8, 2024
First, what a ride! I was glued to the book from page one, it was hard to put the book down. I highly recommend reading Truth on the Brink. I would definitely recommend reading the series in order since there are two other books in the series. The order is as follows: The Truth that Lies Between, The Anatomy of Truth and this book Truth on the Brink. The characters are so real they practically leap off of the pages. The prior knowledge I had of the characters throughout the two previous books continued to bring them to life for me in this book. I enjoyed continuing to read about their lives. I loved the mentions of the places that I love in Mississippi. I especially enjoyed the subtle mentions, the ones that would not be familiar to those who do not know the area. The twists and turns will leave you riveted until the end. This is a must read, my mind was blown by the end! I am still reeling!
