In 1980, the first black supervisor at a Texas Gulf Coast refinery turns up dead behind an abandoned drive-in theater. When a Texas Ranger comes to investigate, the refinery's attorney, Dan Esperson, is drawn into the investigation-and into a tangled web of racial conflict, sex, and deception. Two refinery employees are arrested for the murder. One confesses that the other did it but will never testify. When the killer is released from jail for lack of evidence, Dan may be next on his list. Inspired by a solved, but never resolved, true crime on the Texas Gulf Coast in 1979,
What Seems True is a tale of deception, sex, and revenge amid racial and industrial conflict in a gritty industrial setting.

After years practicing law, James Garrison changed course to writing when he was paid to go away in a corporate merger. His first novel, QL 4, based on his time as a military policeman in the Mekong Delta, has won awards for literary and military fiction, and his novel, The Safecracker (a legal thriller), was a finalist in the 2020 Eric Hoffer Book Awards. His creative nonfiction and fiction works and poems have appeared in literary magazines and anthologies. Landing in Houston, Texas as a young corporate attorney for Texaco Inc., he set out on a long study of Texas lore and landscapes, traveling with his family to see as much of his adopted state as possible. But most of his sojourns in his early Texas years ended up at the refineries and chemical plants in the Golden Triangle, the setting for What Seems True. Webpage: https: //jamesgarrison-author.com/
