Code of Silence: Living a Lie Comes with a Price

A Code of Silence Novel

By: Tim Shoemaker

Narrated by: Tim Lundeen

Telling the truth could get them killed. Remaining silent could be worse. When Cooper, Hiro, and Gordy witness a robbery that leaves a man in a coma, they find themselves tangled in a web of mystery and deceit that threatens their lives. After being seen by the criminals - who may also be cops - Cooper makes everyone promise never to reveal what they have seen. Telling the truth could kill them. But remaining silent means an innocent man takes the fall and a friend never receives justice. Is there ever a time to lie? And what happens when the truth is dangerous? The three friends, trapped in a code of silence, must face the consequences of choosing right or wrong when both options have their price.

Critic reviews

"Like many a crackerjack thriller, this one boasts a breakneck beginning...Rarely are kids in thrillers portrayed this realistically...Deliberate, plausible, and gritty whodunit." ( Booklist)

One of the best books I have ever read

This book is one of the most thrilling, God honoring, moral books that I have ever read.
The author has a true talent for writing and I am glad he continues to do so. I love the fact that he always refers back to God, in the good and the bad, and that lies are wrong, but the author tells us what to do if we fall into that trap. We must tell the truth. I would recommend this book to anyone and everyone. It has great morals that everyone can learn from. This is great for all ages but I would recommend it for those who are older than 10 if they get scared. It definitely has its thrills.

Captivating and suspenseful!

Both me, my son and daughter have read and listened to this book with intense desire to never put it down until the end! A clean suspenseful mystery of friendships and finding their way through intense situations. There are life lessons to be had with emphasis around lying and the consequences. Great job Tim Shoemaker!
