Their reunion reawakens long suppressed feelings, but once again their timing is off, as they must hastily chart a course for her escape. A reckless detour in those carefully laid plans leaves Cord stranded in the backwoods of Maine, hidden by a hermit weaver living off the grid. With no means of communicating with the outside world, the need to craft a new plan intensifies when the peculiar woman takes an obsessive interest in her daughter. Complicating matters further are the local sheriff and a nosy reporter, both with ambitions for uncovering the truth, each with his own private reason for taking refuge in the remote rural village of Murphy, Maine. She contemplates a risky strategy to flee her confinement, but is she desperate enough to enter the depraved world of a recently paroled convict with a long history of brutality? Cord’s folly is the catalyst for dark secrets unraveling, placing her and her daughter in grave danger. She deeply regrets having lied to the one person who might be searching for her. Meanwhile, Ramon seeks to resolve the unsettling truths Cord has concealed from him. If only he could find her. THE FOOL'S TRUTH is a twisty page-turner, expertly blending the webs of mystery, danger and psychological suspense with the alluring possibility of romance from a once unrequited love.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 0997788607\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: BVV.0997788607.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Marion, Loretta\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: The item shows wear from consistent use, but it remains in good condition and works perfectly.
