If Truth Be Told by Lynda Fitzgerald
Coming from a home where affection is in short supply, it's no surprise that Christie O'Kelly gravitates toward her uncle's new wife, a woman who showers her with love. Her son, Todd, a college-bound law student, becomes Christie's friend, and then her first crush. Years pass while his mother and her uncle look on with delight as the young people grow closer. Then, Christie gets the news in a letter. Todd is married- to someone else.
When Todd walks back into her life, his first words are, "I'm really sorry about your uncle." Christie learns that her uncle has been diagnosed with Parkinson's disease, the first of many illnesses that will change the shape of their lives over the coming years.
Christie can't avoid seeing Todd as crisis after medical crisis bring them together. Todd pursues her relentlessly, determined to earn her forgiveness. Then, her uncle dies suddenly. Before Christie has time to grieve, she uncovers evidence that causes her to suspect that one of the people she loves most may have killed him. With her usual determination, she plows ahead in search of the truth, even though she knows that finding it may cost her everything she holds dear.
