Julep Dupree is a lot of things--fixer, grifter, master of disguise. But one thing she isn't is okay. Dealing with the emotional aftermath of the death of someone close to her is proving difficult, especially for someone who isn't supposed to care.
Then a friend of a friend hires Julep's team to stop a cadre of cyber bullies, forcing Julep to run an impossible con. Nothing Julep has been through could possibly have prepared her for the truth behind the bullying, or for the demons she'll have to face to save her friends.
Down to the Liar also features a teaser to Trust Me, I'm Trouble!
Grifters can't have all the fun...
Sam Seward is a hacker, not a con artist. And after the events that landed him in a military school, he's more than happy to leave the grifting to the expert he left back in Chicago. But when a classmate begs him to help her retrieve something one of the school teachers stole from her, Sam's staunch belief in justice won't let him turn her down. He forms a new crew and plots a heist of his own, but he's not Julep, and something about this case just smells wrong.
Will he be able to pull off a con that even Julep would never attempt? Find out in this companion novella to Down to the Liar.
Staying out of trouble isn't possible for Julep Dupree. She has managed not to get kicked out of her private school, even though everyone knows she's responsible for taking down a human-trafficking mob boss—and getting St. Agatha's golden-boy Tyler killed in the process. Running cons holds her guilty conscience at bay, but unfortunately, someone wants Julep to pay for her mistakes…with her life.
Against her better judgment, Julep takes a shady case that requires her to infiltrate a secretive organization, one that may be connected to her long-gone mother and the enigmatic figure called the blue fairy. Her best friend, Sam, isn't around to stop her, and Dani, her one true confidante, happens to be a nineteen-year-old mob enforcer whose moral compass is as questionable as Julep's. But there's not much time to worry about right and wrong—or to save your falling heart—when there's a contract on your head.
Murders, heists, secrets and lies, hit men and hidden identities…If Julep doesn't watch her back, it's her funeral. No lie.
