Jonathan Ball Publishers gifted me a copy of this book in return for an honest review.
Synopsis:

Page-turning and emotional, Home Truths is the stunning new novel from the Sunday Times bestseller.
Review:
When I finished this book the following sayings came to mind: “Every cloud has a silver lining” & “There’s light at the end of the tunnel”
This was a beautiful story of the love of a mother and the lengths she would go to keep her family safe and together.
From the very beginning I was hooked. I needed to know what happened and why it happened. The book though, started off with a cliffhanger and then went into the life of a mother that is given a really raw deal. She struggles keeping it together.
This book deals with issues of debt, missing children, violence, trafficking of drugs and people. This might be a trigger if you have dealt with issues before. It’s heart-breaking and emotional. As a mother, it hit me to the very core. I was so empathetic of Angie. I kept asking myself if I would be able to go through this as a single parent.
Loved it! If you love emotional books that give you that real life feel, I would recommend this book.
