Barbara Truscoe and the Tea of Truth. An unmissable witty read with a sprinkling of magic (en Inglés) - Peter Berry

What if the truth really did come out... even just for an hour?

Barbara is a curious soul who lives to read books. She's a mum, a wife, a reader, a cat-owner and someone who still believes that kindness matters. Then one rainy afternoon, she steps into a peculiar little shop in her local town and leaves with something extraordinary: a vial of tea that compels anyone who drinks a drop of it tell the truth - for exactly sixty minutes.

At first, Barbara experiments carefully. Harmlessly. But when politics creeps closer to home and a dangerous new movement begins to take hold of her community, the temptation to use the tea for some greater purpose becomes impossible to ignore.

As neighbours, friends and families are drawn into a plan that could change far more than a council election, Barbara must decide how much power is too much, and whether honesty really is the best policy when the stakes are this high.

Sometimes all it takes to change everything is the truth.

Barbara Truscoe and the Tea of Truth is a clever, uplifting and timely story with heart, humour and bite, perfect for fans of Clare Pooley and Anne Tyler.
