Cathi Stoler is an award-winning advertising creative director and copywriter turned novelist. Her debut novel, "Telling Lies," published by Camel Press, is now available in Trade Paperback or as an eBook at Amazon and Barnes & Noble. It is also available in paperback at Borders.

With "Telling Lies," Cathi Stoler uses the intricacies and passions of the art world to take readers on a suspenseful transatlantic journey of deceit, betrayal and heroism. There is a new crime writer on the block, with a fully realized cast of characters and all the mayhem they can bring. —David Simon, Creator and Executive Producer of "Treme" and "The Wire"

"Telling Lies," which was selected as a finalist in the Brighid’s Fire Books Fiction Contest, takes on the story of a missing person and stolen Nazi art.

A chance encounter in Florence's Uffizi Museum plunges "Women Now" editor Laurel Imperiole and private investigator Helen McCorkendale into a deadly maze of greed and deceit. From Italy to the gritty streets of New York, the two women pursue their perp in this non-stop crime thriller.

How many lies does it take to get away with murder? Laurel and Helen find out as they thread their way through a sinister skein of lies that could end in death.

Cathi is currently working on two new novels, "Keeping Secrets," which delves into the subject of hidden identity, and "The Hard Way," a story about international diamond trafficking.
