The Truth of The Matter

The Truth of the Matter is the third book in The Homelanders series by Andrew Klavan, which, I am sad to say, is the only book in the series I have read. Aside from that minor detail, I found the book an instant attention grabber jam-packed with adventure, action and mystery. The protagonist Charlie West is an extremely likeable character with BIG problems! One problem is that he has been framed and found guilty for the murder to his best friend Alex. Charlie knows he didn’t do it but, no one other then his girl friend and his other best friend believe him. The next problem is his sudden case of amnesia, he doesn’t remember anything within the past year. Oh and did I mention that since escaping from the police [who are looking for him by the way] there is also a group of men who want him dead and that they are looking for him as well?
Charlie is on the look for answers, and his one clue is a mysterious person named ‘Waterman,’ a person he hopes can answer all his questions. Why has he lost his memory? Who are all these people chasing him? Who can he trust? And when on earth will he be allowed to go back to being a normal teenager?
I found this book easy to read and supremely hard to put down. I eagerly await the next instalment in The Homelanders series, and I can hardly wait to go back and read the first two.
