"A rising star politician and lawyer is clearly keeping secrets about his past from his wife. His relationship with campaign manager Laila Rogers is more complicated than he has let on. As the secrets since law school begin to unravel - with the help of a zealous journalist and the Capitol Police - the politician is a bystander of a seemingly gang-related shooting. But is he an unintended victim of the shooting at all? Meanwhile, his wife's secrets are revealed, despite her best efforts to clamp a lid down on a past marked by abuse and lies, and a false accusation that still haunts her. Unpredictable and unexpected, Why We Lie examines the real life consequences of those who tell the truth and those who lie" -- Publisher description.
