Lisa Forster's birth certificate belonged to a baby who died. Her apparently happy upbringing was a myth and her parents had a dark secret.
With Pete Laundon's help Lisa sets about searching for the truth. She follows up all possible routes, until with no options left she goes to the newspapers for help. After 30 years, who if anyone knows: Who is Lisa Forster? Why was she never told? And who was the baby who died?
The Appearance of Truth is the gripping tale of one woman's search for identity.

Industry Reviews

Reviewed by Michelle Randall for Readers' Favorite

Her mother passed away a year ago, and Lisa is still having trouble figuring out what to do now that she is on her own. A chance meeting at the cemetery brings new hope to her life, in the form of a budding relationship with Pete. A casual discussion about family, and a bet to research their family trees will lead to unknown events for Lisa. She finds that what she thought she knew was not the truth, and she is not who she thought she was. Rosemary Kind does a wonderful job of bringing to life the search for the truth to Lisa's identity, as well as telling the heartbreaking tale from her parents’ side of the story. The Appearance of Truth will challenge you to understand the pain of parents and confusion as Lisa searches for the truth.

The idea that maybe you actually have a rich and famous ancestor in your family tree has sparked many a person to research their genealogy. The Appearance of Truth takes the idea of family trees and turns it upside down as Lisa sets out on a normal quest, only to unlock a mystery that has be hidden for thirty years. Rosemary Kind brings to life the many sides of this story, with each getting equal time, and none being slated as being the better side. The story takes the fears of finding out a secret and packages it into a novel worth the read. This was an engaging story that kept me interested to the very end.
