The Honesty Index

When his friends are sucked into playing a truth game, Trent must race to expose the anonymous manipulator before everyone’s lives are ripped apart.

Trent Ryder lost his parents and younger brother in a fire. Not knowing what caused the blaze haunted his teenage years. So, when the now twenty-something Trent and his friends receive an invitation to play a game that promises the answer, he’s ready to play.

The former schoolmates soon realise the game knows everything about them, and if they refuse to play or lie, their secrets will be ruthlessly exposed to the world. As each friend faces their round of five questions and five pleas, Trent is tantalisingly close to learning who started the fire and why. But the price is high—total honesty about the past.

Can Trent learn the truth and stop the game before it breaks them all?

The Honesty Index is a gripping psychological thriller. If you enjoyed The Stranger by Harlan Coben, No Time for Goodbye by Linwood Barclay, or One of Us is Lying by Karen McManus, you’ll love NJ Barker’s debut.
