Naked Lies

About the Book

After the breakup of his marriage and plagued by severe depression, Amos Grant loses his job as an award-winning reporter on a large metropolitan newspaper and is forced to return to Taterville, the small Florida cowboy town of his birth. He consents to his dying father's wish and takes over the family weekly newspaper and stays to care for his ailing mother.

After ten years, he feels shackled. He hates his dull, unsophisticated life and dreams of the day when he can escape Taterville. But everything changes when Randy, his gay employee, is charged with the mysterious deaths of two teenage boys.

In order to prove Randy's innocence, Amos must battle Carlton Potter, one of the richest ranchers in the state. In addition, he is threatened by Taterville's bigoted secret society.

In the end, Amos realizes he must uncover the naked lies lurking behind the closed doors of Carlton Potter's mansion, even if it means discovering the stark truth about himself.
