Forbidden Truths - The system that was supposed to protect children was used to destroy families.

When Tom and Rosalyn find Maja Berge in a women's shelter in Bergen — broken, exhausted, and separated from her child — they uncover something that reaches far beyond one family's tragedy.

A caseworker who falsified reports for years. Children removed from loving mothers on fabricated grounds. An institutional silence designed to protect the wrong people.

What follows is a courtroom battle where the only weapon left is the truth — and the only question is whether it will be enough.

FORBIDDEN TRUTHS is Book Four of The Forbidden Series. The saga begins with Book One: FORBIDDEN DESIRES.

Perfect for readers of Jodi Picoult, Celeste Ng, and Khaled Hosseini.

Contains explicit scenes. For adult readers.
