Where the Truth Lies: A Novel

Renaissance man Rupert Holmes, who has won Tony, Grammy, and Emmy awards for everything but the kitchen sink, returns to delight readers with his first novel. When a wry young journalist known for her celebrity interviews begins a book-length piece on singer-actor Vince Collins, she discovers that he and his comedy-team partner, Lanny Morris, are less than an open book. On and off stage they are inseparable - until a mysterious death casts a shadow upon their friendship. When the pair parts ways, the journalist finds herself caught between them, knowing more about them than they realize, and less than she would like, but increasingly fearful of knowing too much. As the punning title suggests, getting at the truth could lead her into a funhouse of lying mirrors.
