Down to the Liar (Trust Me novella)
Julep Dupree is a lot of things – fixer, grifter, master of disguise. But one thing she isn't is okay. Dealing with the emotional aftermath of the death of someone close to her is proving difficult, especially for someone who isn't supposed to care.
Then a friend of a friend hires Julep's team to stop a cadre of cyber bullies, forcing Julep to run an impossible con. Nothing Julep has been through could possibly have prepared her for the truth behind the bullying, or for the demons she'll have to face to save her friends.
Down to the Liar also features a teaser to Trust Me, I'm Trouble!

Teen con-artist and master of disguise, Julep Dupree, tells lies. A lot of them. Her father is an old-school grifter with a weakness for the ponies who sends his daughter to a swanky private school so she can learn to mingle with the upper crust. But for extra spending money Julep doesn’t rely on her dad – she runs petty scams for her classmates while dodging the dean of students and maintaining an A+ (okay, A-) average.
Julep has it under control, until she returns home one afternoon to discover the place ransacked and her father missing. Have his criminal ways caught up with him? Julep will have to use every trick in her book to get to the bottom of this nasty business...
Fans of Ally Carter, especially her Heist Society readers, will love this teen mystery/thriller with sarcastic wit, a hint of romance, and Ocean’s Eleven-inspired action.
