Someone Had To Lie is a political mystery / thriller.

DEA agent Joe Aguilar is dead. His life was taken as talked to his friend, defense attorney James Butler. His last words: “It was bigger than we thought and now we’re in danger.” The file James inherited has no coherency, but articles and notes did have a theme: Fentanyl. Their starting point is the place where Joe was investigating something secretively, where he died using a pay phone, Yuma, Arizona. Now James and his wife/partner Erica Walsh are on a perilous quest to find and hold accountable the person responsible for Aquilar’s death.
