Sliver of Truth: A Suspense Thriller (Vintage Crime/Black Lizard)

Ridley Jones is on a mission to find a ghost from her past . . . a very deadly ghost.

In Beautiful Lies, Ridley Jones stepped off a street corner and into an abyss of violence, deception, and fear. She is being a lot more careful about where she steps and trying to get on with her life when another seemingly mundane act-picking up a few envelopes of prints at a photo lab-puts her at the nexus of a global network of crime. A shadowy figure of a man appears in almost every picture she's taken in the last year, lurking just far enough away to make identification impossible. Everyone from the federal government to the criminal underworld wants to know who the man is, but the only thing Ridley knows for sure is that she has to get to the truth about herself and her past if she's ever going to find her way home.
