The back cover copy for Words Spoken True leads the reader to believe that this novel is simple romance between two people with interests in competing newspapers. But Words Spoken True is so much more.A serial killer is on the loose in 1850's Louisville, Kentucky, preying on young Irish girls. As this mystery deepens, author Gabhart drops the reader into the midst of a political campaign fought on the basis of prejudice against immigrants and enslaved blacks.
If this weren't enough, the main characters in Words Spoken True, Adriane Darcy and Blake Garrett, strike more sparks than I’ve encountered in the past several novels I’ve read.
Quite simply, Words Spoken True is a terrific read. I give this story two thumbs up.

Thanks for the two thumbs up, Ann. Means a lot coming from a fellow writer. Well, two thumbs up means a lot coming from any reader. We do need a few good words about our stories now and again, don't we?
