Review:
Imagine a world in which no one can lie. Now try to imagine the consequences. Halperin has written this generation's 1984. Only time will tell whether Halperin's book is speculative fiction, or inverse history.
About the Author:
Like his protagonist, James L. Halperin was born and raised in Massachusetts, attended Harvard, and eventually settled in Dallas, Texas. There the similarities end. He now directs the world's largest rare coin company. This is his first novel; he is already hard at work on his next.
