An intelligent and propulsive international political thriller in
which political fixer Peter Rena is hired by the president to
investigate the bombing of an American military base overseas When
a shadowy American diplomatic complex is attacked in North Africa,
the White House is besieged by accusations of incompetence and wild
conspiracy theories. Eager to learn the truth, the president and
his staff turn to Peter Rena and his partner, Randi Brooks. The
investigators dive headfirst into the furtive world of foreign
intelligence and national security, hoping to do it quietly. That
becomes impossible, though, when it blows up into an all-out public
scandal: Congress opens hearings and a tireless national security
reporter publishes a bombshell expose. Now, Rena and Brooks are
caught in the middle. The White House wants to prevent debilitating
fallout for the president, the military appears to be in shutdown
mode, the press is hungry for another big story, and rival
politicians are plotting their next move. Rena learns the hard way
that secrets in Washington come with a very high price. With
intelligence, style, and a breakneck pace, The Good Lie explores
the contours of secrets, lies, and the dangers of a never-ending
war. Praise for Shining City: "One of the smartest thrillers in
recent memory." --Dallas Morning News "A debut that will be
remembered for years." --Michael Connelly "Skillful and memorable."
--Wall Street Journal
