' Page-turning, dark and with an anti-hero to rival Highsmith's Tom Ripley, international bestseller 'The Truth and Other Lies' will have you gripped, second-guessing the line between truth and fiction.







From the outside, Henry Hayden has a perfect life: he's a famous novelist with more money than he can spend, a grand house in the country, a loyal, clever wife.  But Henry has a dark side. If only the readers and critics who worship his every word knew that his success depends on a carefully maintained lie.  A lie he will stop at nothing to protect.





He has been lucky, but one day his luck must surely run out, and he simply can't allow that to happen.  In thrall to paranoia and self-interest, Henry makes a fatal error that could cause the whole dream to unravel and land him in the gutter, and despite his most machiavellian efforts, events swiftly spin out of control as lie is heaped upon lie, menace upon menace.  And it turns out that those around him have their secrets too . . .
 






'Deliciously twisted…Arango is hugely famous as a screenwriter in his native Germany and this is obviously the work of somebody who knows how to spin a good story '  Jake Kerridge, Sunday Express






'Bears comparison to Patricia Highsmith ... the book fairly twangs with paranoia, sardonic humour and razor-sharp observation ' Guardian
