After writing sixteen Inspector Lynley novels, New York
Times bestselling author Elizabeth George has millions
of fans waiting for the next one. As USA Today put
it, "It's tough to resist George's storytelling, once
hooked." With Believing the Lie, she's poised to hook
countless more.
Inspector Thomas Lynley is mystified when he's sent
undercover to investigate the death of Ian Cresswell at the
request of the man's uncle, the wealthy and influential
Bernard Fairclough. The death has been ruled an accidental
drowning, and nothing on the surface indicates otherwise.
But when Lynley enlists the help of his friends Simon and
Deborah St. James, the trio's digging soon reveals that the
Fairclough clan is awash in secrets, lies, and motives.
Deborah's investigation of the prime suspect-Bernard's
prodigal son Nicholas, a recovering drug addict-leads her to
Nicholas's wife, a woman with whom she feels a kinship, a
woman as fiercely protective as she is beautiful. Lynley and
Simon delve for information from the rest of the family,
including the victim's bitter ex-wife and the man he left
her for, and Bernard himself. As the investigation
escalates, the Fairclough family's veneer cracks, with
deception and self-delusion threatening to destroy everyone
from the Fairclough patriarch to Tim, the troubled son Ian
left behind.
