Publisher's Synopsis
Prepare to have your conception of truth rocked to its very foundation, as first-time novelist Halperin creates a prophetic, all-too conceivable world of the near future. A machine is built that can detect lies with 100% accuracy. Lawyers find themselves out of work as crime is eliminated; political candidates can no longer harbour hidden agendas. The Truth Machine reshapes the very nature of humanity. But ultimately the fate of the earth rests with mankind. Are we up to the challenge?
