Unger builds and sustains taut suspense like few other authors, metering layers of intentional misrepresentation until a sliver of truth seems like a form of treasure.

This novel isn't exactly a sequel to "Beautiful Lies." It's more a continuation of a two-part story. Meaning, of course, that the first part should be read first. Don't even think about it. Get "Beautiful Lies," then get this one.

Lisa Unger has to be one of the best new author's I've ever read. I picked up her first book Beautiful Lies and loved it. So I went on the hunt for the sequel Sliver of Truth and loved it just as much. She has a new book releasing soon and I can't wait to get my hands on it. Her books are page turners and you get so connected to her characters.

follow up book to Beautiful Lies which was a much better book.this story went round and round one too many times and became tedious towards the end.
the charachter of Ridley seems a little hard to believe with this being set in current day.i do like the way she address' the reader tho', it makes you feel part of the story.

Sliver of Truth is the sequel to Beautiful Lies, a book I read and enjoyed several months ago. Many questions were left unanswered at the end of Beautiful Lies, and here Unger tries to answer them, with some heart-pounding suspense, twists turns and all out action. It's hard to review a sequel without ruining the first book for those who haven't read it, but I'll give it a go.

Ridley Pearson's Uncle Max died a few years ago and Ridley has recently found out some life altering news about Max and his life. But if Max is dead then why is the FBI following Ridley and asking her questions about him? Why does Ridley's friend Jake believe Max is alive? And why does everyone Ridley contacts while investigating Max's death end up dead? Unger produces a very dark and intricately plotted story that delves more deeply into Ridley's character as well as those people who are a part of her life. You care for Ridley and walk with her every step of the way, hoping she will find the answers she so desperately seeks. Good sequel and I am definitely going to read Black Out, Unger's newest book.

I really liked this book. The twists and turns of the plot and the characters kept me on edge. I think it would be best if a person read "Beautiful Lies" first (which I did). This is a follow up to that story, but if one didn't read it first, Ms. Unger guides you through and gives just enough background, that you could read this one as a stand alone story. I did find myself questioning, in my mind, nearly everyone and everything around me while I was reading it. I would highly recommend this book to anyone who loves a mystery of the mind and people.

I received this book as a gift. I didn't realize it was a sequal when I began reading. However, it was not difficult to follow, even considering lots of back story. The character keeps the reader informed.
At times some of the events that the main character experenced were a bit far fetched, though still entertaining.
Suspensful. Much Excitement. Not hard to follow. Overall, an enjoyable story.

I really enjoyed this book which is a follow-up to her book called "Beautiful Lies". There is plenty of excitement in this one.....and if you have never read any of Lisa Unger's books make sure you read "Beautiful Lies" first and then grab a copy of this one next!!!

I really enjoyed this book. I had a hard time putting it down and it kept me guessing. It is best if you read Beautiful Lies first this is a sequel.
