Product Description

Let the Truth Be Told is a political action thriller in the tradition of top selling authors such as Robert Ludlum and David Baldacci. It is the story of Dr. Keith Bryant, a professor at the University of VA, who is teaching a class entitled "The Politics of Conspiracy" that looks at the role of the media in understanding historic world events. When the class begins studying the many conspiracy theories surrounding 9/11 it arouses the attention of a clandestine government agency run by Colonel Ed Foster, a man charged with maintaining the secrets behind 9/11. Dr. Keith Bryant and his girlfriend, Loren Davis, are forced to run when Colonel Foster and his team find a link between Keith's work and a highly regarded, well funded group of conspiracy researchers called Let the Truth Be Told (LTBT). Fearing that the secrets of 9/11 could be uncovered by their combined efforts, Foster unleashes all of his resources to find and terminate Keith and Loren, as well as everyone and everything that they hold dear. Though a true political thriller, Let the Truth Be Told is also a story about how an ordinary couple reacts to the terror and stress of being on the run and in constant fear as the special people in their lives are targeted by Foster's assassins. It's also a look at the internal conflict that our heroes struggle with when they ultimately gain an advantage over their pursuers and are forced to use extreme measures to extract the information that will save America from further harm at the hands of Foster and his co-conpirators.

5.0 out of 5 stars Unbelievable that this is Hudson's first effort, February 8, 2008

By	F. Zalupski (New Jersey, USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This is as good a political thriller as I have read. LTBT is like an onion with layers of character development, plot, action, a little technology and a dark look into the human psyche. The book provides an intelligent poke at conspiracy theories mixed with modern cynicism set in current events. If you like this genre LTBT has something for you. I kept having to remind myself of the line separating tragic, historical fact and this excellent fiction. Whole-heartedly recommended!

5.0 out of 5 stars Timely for Presidential Election Year, February 9, 2008

By	Yellow Jacket '84 (DC Metro) - See all my reviews

If you like smart, action thrillers with political intrigue and some classy romance thrown in for good measure then this first book from author Sonny Hudson will not disappoint. For those who have spent any time in Charlottesville or Reston, Virginia or Annapolis, Maryland, you will certainly enjoy Hudson's written tours through little get away places only the locals know about. This mix of Ludlum and Balducci isn't for everyone. Jane Austen and Lucy Maud Montgomery fans steer clear.

5.0 out of 5 stars Really exciting!, January 7, 2009

This review is from: Let The Truth Be Told (Paperback)

This book was amazing. I honestly couldn't put it down, it was that good. It was suspenseful, had a lot of twists and turns and great character development. I was really sad to see it end! I can't wait for this author to do a sequel (or at least another book).
