Some questions don't have answers.

In The Lie Detector, the Artisan's Journal, and the Infinite Spiral—Robert Lovinger's fourth novel—Donovan Patel is one of the nation's leading private investigators. Corporations and governments call on her to expose deception and fraud.

She's a celebrity, giving interviews on TV and delivering TED talks and highly paid lectures. She teaches a course at New York University, has coached poker players on how to read opponents, and even had a character in a movie modelled after her.

She is supremely self-assured. But when she learns that someone she investigated has committed suicide, her confidence is shattered by the possibility she made a mistake.

The Lie Detector, the Artisan's Journal, and the Infinite Spiral is a tale of mystery and revelation; of a remarkable near-death experience and a terrorist plot against the nation's infrastructure. There's a shocking, unexplained vision, a nobleman's broken heart in sixteenth-century France, and a long-ago promise finally kept.

Oh, and a barbershop where everybody knows your name.
