After a brutal rape, and a long time of processing and self-examination, Susanne feels lonely and isolated.

Should she have told someone close to her what she was subjected to instead of keeping everything to herself? Should she have confided in her workmate, who has shown interest in her and to whom she feels drawn? Can she do it now, long afterwards, to get closer to him and to prove to herself that she is free from what happened?

NOTHING BUT THE TRUTH is a story about sorrow and secrets, fear and courage, longing, and love. It is a sequel to THE ABUSE, which describes Susanne's feelings, thoughts, and reactions during the time immediately after the traumatic event.
