I look along the road and notice how many people are standing outside their houses or watching from doorways and windows. Staring. Studying.

'Do you think this town will ever forgive me?' I ask.
'Not in a million years.'

Small towns are quick to anger and slow to forgive, but Arlo Hackett doesn't expect mercy when he emerges from a twelve-year prison sentence and makes his way back to Yulara, a waypoint on Australia's Great Southern Road. The last time Arlo was home, his brother Luke was charged with a terrible crime and Arlo was found guilty by association.

His return to the goldrush town is like cracking open a time capsule full of hatred and violence, along with memories of the people he loved - the ones he couldn't save.

Yulara wants Arlo gone, or worse, but every insult and humiliation pushes him to confront what really happened all those years ago.

The truth will shock you, surprise you, and break your heart.

Tell Me Something True is my book of the year. This compelling, intriguing and entertaining masterpiece examines the conscience of a whole town, and should win every award going. Genius
This is Michael Robotham's masterpiece. From the first chapter, you know you are in the hands of a storyteller at the peak of his powers. It is tender, heartbreaking, beguiling, enraging, exhilarating and triumphant, sometimes all on the same page. An epic elegy of love, family, morality and justice that deserves to be showered with awards
Emotional, startling and beautifully crafted; it brings small town Australia into your living room
This novel and its characters will stay with me forever. I ached, cried, and laughed and it felt like I bled right along with them. No one will ever forge a flawless novel, but with Tell Me Something True, Robotham has gotten as close to it as I've ever seen
A triumph. A gripping page-turner with a vivid sense of place, impeccably drawn characters, a plot you can't second guess, and real emotional punch. I loved it
Tell Me Something True is a profoundly rich and heartbreaking novel about the singular endurance of love in all its forms, even through unthinkable and compounding tragedies. Michael Robotham demonstrates uncommon insight into the suffering and survival of a family devastated by murder and its myriad aftermaths. Here is a master storyteller reminding us that hope is more powerful than grief
Most writers would be proud to produce, in their entire career, a book half as good as Tell Me Something True. I felt the same sense of excitement reading this book as I did when I picked up Michael's first novel, The Suspect. No one can touch him when it comes to infusing crime with character and heart
One of the best books I've read all year - beautifully written, moving and propels you to a devastating ending. I loved Michael's description of small town Australia and the great characters he created - it really is a gem
