Nothing But the Truth is a 1947 detective novel by John Rhode, the pen name of the British writer Cecil Street.[1][2] It is the forty fourth in his long-running series of novels featuring Lancelot Priestley, a Golden Age armchair detective.[3]
In a contemporary review in The New York Times Isaac Anderson wrote, "The pattern is the same as in the other Dr. Priestley stories, and it is becoming more than a bit shopworn." However, Will Cuppy, writing in the New York Herald Tribune, was much more positive "Here is real detection in entertaining form, standard Grade A goods."
