Описание: Maeve McCaffery, an Irish caregiver, was awarded estate money from a wealthy resident upon her death. While this could be life changing for her, she was instead miserable, as her clients estate planner referred a devious immigration specialist to Maeves home care registry The specialist, Mat Turner needed money and decided to steal from Maeves client spinning a web of deceptive lies. He insisted that Maeve comply with his request or hell send her back to Ireland. He took more than money; he took Maeves innocence and trust. Maeve had to flee her beloved Philadelphia, as she was carrying Mats child...the child conceived without consent.
After moving to Maine, Maeve thought that Mat could never find her. She convinced herself that she would never be his victim again. She was wrong. Maeve saw Mats cunning behavior in her son, Nate. She decided her son would never know Mats identity.
Years later, Nate was told the truth; his entire life changed with that knowledge. After a heated argument with his mom, Nate was enraged and drove to Philadelphia. He wanted to find his dad. He needed his support, his love. Absorbed in intense thought, Nate didnt see the truck swerving in his direction. He felt the impact, the sound of broken glass and crushed metal.
Days later, Nate awakes in a New York Trauma Hospital. Although the blaring sounds of intensive care were piercing, Nate welcomed the soft stream of opioid drugs flowing rapidly into his distressed body. Deceptive Lies... tells the story of a young mans journey towards truth and redemption.
