Porém, como se descobre a verdade sobre alguém que já não se encontra entre nós? O autor Barclay Quinton escreveu Fabringjay, a história de um homem que levava uma vida dupla durante a Segunda Guerra Mundial, que foi bem recebida pelos críticos, mas ignorada pelos leitores.

No entanto, o seu sucesso abriu-lhe portas e ele começou por investigar para o seu próximo romance, sobre a história de uma mafioso em envelhecimento. A pesquisa do Barclay levou-o a contactar com muitas pessoas perigosas, incluindo vilões, detetives privados sombrios e dirigentes de clubes noturnos. O relatório oficial sobre a morte do Barclay declarava que ele tinha cometido suicídio. Mas uma amiga próxima dele insistia que o Barclay tinha sido assassinado e eu fui contratada para investigar o caso.  Entretanto, mais perto de casa, descobri um segredo e uma verdade sobre o meu parceiro de longa data. Era ele o homem dos meus sonhos ou estaria a nossa relação prestes a terminar? Segredos e Mentiras - uma história sobre o amor, sobre o engano, sobre as muitas caras que todos nós possuímos.
