Alyssa Grace's Reviews > To Kill the Truth

I'm glad I gave this series a second chance. To Kill the Truth came out a better book than To Kill the President in just about every way. Amidst a riveting blend of politics and techno-thriller, Maggie became a protagonist I could really root for.

But don't discount the grim scenarios imagined here, any rational person's worst nightmare. To Kill the Truth is outright bleak at times, and victory for the good guys has to be Pyrrhic. The author can't resist making Maggie a martyr yet again, turning the entire world (minus her stalwart couple of loved ones) against her as she defies all odds to mitigate catastrophe. This woman gets framed more regularly than Ethan Hunt, and she doesn't even have spy superpowers to get out of it.
