What I Thought Was True

Huntley Fitzpatrick

Overview

Gwen Castle’s summer on Seashell Island is supposed to be quiet, but the arrival of her estranged cousin and the boy she almost lost her virginity to complicates everything. As she juggles cleaning tourist cottages and caring for her special-needs brother, long-held family stories begin to unravel. Fitzpatrick weaves class tension, small-town gossip and first love into a story that questions what honesty really costs.
