Requirements: .ePUB reader, 279 KB
Overview: From master mystery author John Lutz comes this collection featuring a gripping man-on-the-run novel and four of his best pieces of short fiction.
In The Truth of the Matter, Lou Roebuck is a successful advertising man with all the trappings — prestige, position, a flashy car, money, and a beautiful woman on his arm. He’s also a compulsive liar, and what begins as a fib on his expense account leads to trouble that compounds like loan shark interest. His past, and the people in it, has caught up with him, again. Which means the life he’s been faking his way through, the good life, threatens to come unraveled.
Roebuck takes to the road, trying to put miles between himself and his trouble. But he picks up more trouble along the way, while staying in a cabin at peaceful Lake Chippewa in backwoods Missouri. He tries to extricate himself by doing what he thinks he does best — lie. In one scrape after another, it doesn’t work. Nor for long, anyway. And Roebuck is on the run again. The problem is that he finally doesn’t know lies from truth, about what happened, about why he is running, about what’s real, about himself. Distance hasn’t helped, and love and loyalty haven’t saved him. Maybe nothing will.
