Have you ever been deceived?
Fooled by a stranger, or a loved one?
Award-winning Rosemary Mairs delves into the motives, daring and cunning, of deceivers. Examines the myriad ways to be duped – financially, romantically . . . fatally.
In the title story a lonely divorcée finds happiness with a younger man. Is he genuine, or has she fallen victim to a romance scam? A selfless father acts with courage and bravery in Hero, so why can't he face his son? Is a school girl with a life-threating nut allergy only an attention seeker? In Just One someone decides to put it to the test. An ex-trickster tries his upmost to keep out of trouble, but sometimes life spins out of control in Flick the Slick.
Betrayal. Concealment. Duplicity. No one is what they seem. Sprinkled with dark humour, these absorbing tales reach into the deepest recesses of the human psyche, ask:
Who really can you trust?
