Publisher's summary

In the era of “fake news”, when facts are suspect and reporters are targets, popular First Lady Rose Gannon dies suddenly during an interview with White House Correspondent Lark Chadwick. Still reeling from the death of her photographer boyfriend, Lark is thrust into the midst of a media-bashing frenzy while covering a grieving president trying to defuse a looming nuclear war.

Fake is a real-life look behind the scenes at the ethical struggles of a female journalist in a #MeToo world, walking the line between personal feelings and dispassionate objectivity - trying to discern the difference between what’s real...and what’s fake.

Great Story, Couldn’t Stop Listening

From the references to Grand Dad Bluff, the chilling remembrance of carbon monoxide poisoning and the sad discovery of overdosed loved ones found on the streets of Washington D.C.; in some ways “Fake” is anything but fake.

Beautifully Narrated Book with Inventive Plot!

This book is great! The plot has many clever twists and turns and kept me entertained. Candace Fitzgerald, the narrator, was wonderful. I love that she used different voices for all the characters and I felt as if I was listening to completely different characters speaking. I look forward to listening to more books narrated by Candace!

Exciting Thriller with Excellent Narration

Fake packs a lot of twist and turns in its brief runtime, but what makes it so enjoyable is it’s reliance on creating in-depth and engaging characters for the reader to get invested in.

The narration is FANTASTIC! All the characters (of which there were many) were distinct and engaging. The actress really made this a delight to listen to!

Well written and entertaining story of a journalist attached to the White House, who finds herself on the otherside of the news.
