Two Truths by Dana C. Carver
After the mysterious death of her husband, Renee Morgan is determined to protect her three daughters, forcing her to face a history she has spent a lifetime avoiding.
Groomed by her father to join the most elite of secret societies, Brett knows she is destined for something great. But her ambition demands a high price.
Sara is ready to avenge her father at any cost. When she finds herself swept up in conspiracies and family secrets, her search for answers uncovers a primeval power.
Hadley watched her father die and now he won’t leave her alone. Guided by his ghost, she begins to experience memories of past lives.
As the journeys of Renee, Brett, Sara and Hadley converge, two Truths are revealed that change everything they knew about themselves and the world they live in.

Review
‘True Truths’ was a page-turning, enthralling look at family relationships, faith, love and revenge. It's a journey of discovery, a look at how we view religion and the dynamics of power. I was captured by Hadley's story and that of her siblings. This is a look at human potential and how we can reach it.
This is the world of secret societies, religion, faith and the consequences of seeking out the Truth. After, Scott is murdered in front of two of his daughters his family has to reassess their places in the world. This is the tale of three sisters and their mother Renee. Her eldest Brett has been groomed to enter The Order by their father, Sara is now on a path of revenge and discovery whilst the youngest Hadley has not uttered a word since their father died.
I found myself more interested in the quest for the second Truth but that is mainly because I am a Buddhist and therefore that philosophy appealed to me more. The scenes between Hadley and Issa I thought were the best in the book - they radiated peace somehow. Don't get me wrong there is a lot of action and twists and turns in this book to keep you hooked! Also, I wonder if there will be a second book as you can't leave it there!
I found this book to be captivating from the get-go and couldn't wait to discover the events that unfolded. Let me know if you read this one!
