3 Truths and a Lie by Lisa Gardner
(Detective D.D. Warren #7.5)
With this short story we get a couple of hours in the life of D.D. Warren as she psyches herself up for a difficult challenge that she feels is way above her ability to perform. She is about to stand in front of authors of thrillers and give a 50 minute class on what it's actually like to be a homicide detective. The story does some thrill writer name dropping (someone by the name of Slaughter, for instance) and D.D. draws the crowd in by making the case she talks about being a competition to see who can find out the lie in this 3 truths and a lie homicide. A seedy motel, a hooker, and a sawed off leg is involved in this puzzler. I enjoy these short stories between the novels as they usually give an opportunity for some humor amongst the mayhem.
