TRooth
Mom always said, truth is stranger than fiction. But when fourteen year-old Teagan Reynolds joins a writer’s club at school and becomes close friends with Ellie… her Mom’s words become the understatement
of a lifetime.
Ellie has a dark side, and she admits mental illness runs in her family. But Teagan is drawn to her sweet, loving and compassionate side, and wants to help Ellie fight her demons. But something is just not right, and when the imaginary friend Ellie remembers from her past becomes something much more real…Teagan begins to put together the pieces of a terrifying puzzle.
Told through the varying perspectives of two writers in multiple timelines, TRooth takes the reader on a wild, secretive journey, where the story that’s being fed to Teagan and Ellie pales in comparison to the horrifying truth they will discover.
