Where the Truth Lies (Macmillan New Writing) - Softcover

At 40, Isabel has finally given up on her cheating husband. She is a single parent with two teenage children and a tough job running a school. This is made tougher still by the fact that her predecessor Will Fullwood, remains the school’s hero. His natural successor the irresistible Max Truman kept the school running smoothly during Will’s last illness. So why did the governors appoint Isabel? Staff loyalties are with Max but second deputy Jack Redfern is definitely on Isabel’s side. Within weeks he’s in her bed as well. Despite Max’s claims to be her loyal supporter, Isabel’s suspicions begin to grow. Until she can prove his guilt, Max is officially innocent. But suppose he is innocent after all? Maybe Isabel has invented it all to discredit her rival.
