*The Burning Mind*
CJ Carver is a top notch thriller writer and Spare Me The Truth is
right up there with the best.
*Simon Kernick*
Nothing short of brilliant . . . Carver has created a wonderful
story here, sort of Jason Bourne meets Silence of the Lambs.
*Michael Jecks, author of Blood on the Sands*
A real page turner
*Worth A Read Blog*
This is an incredible roller-coaster of a read. It seems that every
page brings a new explosive shock that brings with it yet more
questions. Brilliantly and intricately plotted, this is an
on-the-edge-of-your-seat read as the story twists and turns with
efforts of three strangers to untangle the conspiracy in which they
find themselves entwined. Don't miss it.
*Mystery People*
My first thought on reading Spare Me The Truth was one of total
delight. I love discovering new authors and unexpected little gems,
like this one. This reminded me why I love thrillers so very
much.
*Northern Crime Blog*
A fast and addictive thriller, an intelligently woven plot with
multiple layers...Beautifully written to be entirely engaging (and
exciting) throughout with pitch perfect characters, a healthy dose
of reality in amongst the fictional shenanigans and overall a
stonking good read all round.
*Liz Loves Books Blog*
Very intelligent and thought-provoking... without a doubt be one of
the best thrillers I will read in 2016 and I have no trouble
recommending this book to those that might be becoming tired of the
genre, are looking for something new or really, just someone who
likes a seriously great book because that's what this is in simple
terms. A must-read thriller.

I couldn't put Spare me the Truth down... This is a confident
thriller, one that is written by an author who has a unique voice,
a magical plotting ability, and a clarity of presentation that
keeps us fully on track. I felt there was room for a series here. I
do hope that is planned.
*Frost Magazine*
Spare Me the Truth is a gripping intelligent thriller covering
conspiracy theories, spies, action and murder. It packs a lot into
its 500+ pages...it's fast paced and well plotted.
*Off The Shelf Book Reviews Blog*
I was really impressed by her ease of storytelling and her ability
to draw me into the story from the beginning. The plot is well
controlled and there are lots of twists and turns which kept me
guessing all the way through...Overall, there is a genuine edginess
to the story which grips tight and which never lets up the pace
until the story is dramatically concluded.
*Jaffa Reads Too Blog*
An action-packed, Bourne-esque mystery thriller - impossible to put
down
*Mason Cross*
Had me reading till ridiculous hours of the night, needing to find
out what happens next
*Ruth Downie, author of the Ruso Medicus series*
A high octane mix of Jason Bourne game playing and gritty Brit
noir, CJ Carver puts the pedal to the metal and doesn't let
up...!
*Jack Grimwood, author of Moskva*
Spare Me the Truth is a complex tale of betrayal and deception. CJ
Carver writes with compassion about characters she really cares
about
*Parker Bilal, author of City of Jackals*
A fast-paced, high concept thriller that ticks all the boxes and
then some. Strong women, international covert intrigue, and a nasty
serial killer. I'm so glad this is the first of a series: I want
more of amnesiac Dan Forrester and 'lively' PC Lucy Davies, and I
want it now!
*Julia Crouch, author of Cuckoo*
...One of the best on the market!
*Chris High*
A clever, easy-to-read mystery...a tense thriller

A plot as ingeniously constructed as a Sudoku puzzle...an
intriguing page turner with a deftly explored psychological
dimension. A multi-layered novel that goes beyond the usual limits
of the genre
*The Lady*
An intelligently constructed plot, featuring multiple layers, all
comes together right on target at the climax of this thrilling
novel

Spare Me The Truth was an absolute blast to read (...) it was
perfect escapism. I got drawn into the story and did not want to
stop reading, this is exactly what I look for in a book!
