This dystopian noir thriller – the latest novel from New York Times bestselling author Ben H. Winters – is set in the Golden State, a sovereign nation established where California once stood, and a place where like-minded Americans retreated after the erosion of truth and the spread of lies made public life and governance impossible outside its borders. But in a society that values truth above all else, monitoring, verifying, and enforcing it can lead to far greater crimes when placed in the wrong hands. Joining Winters to discuss the book is Mitzi Rapkin, host of the Lit Hub podcast “First Draft: A Dialogue on Writing.”
