True Story: Murder, Memoir, Mea Culpa

Always fascinating, sometimes funny, often very weird...simply terrific from the first page to the last.

Carefully structured, rigorously reported, and fascinating till the end.

A memoir as creepy as it is compelling...expertly and suspensefully told.

Combines crime and intellectual heft...could well become a classic of the genre.

A riveting, disturbing, and magnificent merging of two men at their lowest moments.

A compulsively readable amorality tale.

Astute and hypnotically absorbing...there's a burning sincerity (and beautifully modulated writing) on every page.

Now a major motion picture from Brad Pitt's Plan B Entertainment, starring Jonah Hill and James Franco

The shocking true tale of a bizarre and intense relationship-a reporting job that morphed into a shrewd game of cat-and-mouse involving a disgraced journalist and an FBI Most Wanted Murderer living under the journalist's name.

Part mystery, part memoir, part mea culpa, True Story weaves a spellbinding tale of murder, love, and deceit with a deeply personal inquiry into the slippery nature of truth, involving a disgraced former contributor for the New York Times and a man who killed his entire family and then posed as the reporter himself.
