Title- Captured Lies
By Maggie Thom
Publication Date- October 17th, 2012
Blurb-
She was kidnapped not once but twice and now someone wants her
dead because of it....
Her life was a lie!
Bailey knew her upbringing wasn’t normal but she’s worked hard to
stabilize her life. At 29, she finally has a good business, a stable home; her
life is miles from that of her childhood. Then suddenly her mother dies,
leaving a gaping hole and a discovery that they may not even be related. If
Guy, the private investigator is to be believed, her life is a lie. Using the
skills she learned on the streets, Bailey travels back through a sketchy and
dangerous past, to find answers. Dodging bullets, staying ahead of those who
want her dead and convincing Guy she can do it alone, are making it difficult
to discover not only the secrets of her mother’s past but that of a family
claiming she is theirs.
Everyone seems to have a story... but who’s telling the truth? And
who wants her dead? Is Guy part of the solution? Or part of the problem? To
discover the facts, she’ll have to untangle a web of deceit, lies, and secrets,
dating back over thirty years.

A short history/bio on each of the main characters:
Bailey is twenty nine and feels like she’s just getting her life
on track. She has her own Interior Decorating business and she has lived in the
same place for five years, a record for her. Her life has been anything but
typical. She was raised by a single mom and moved frequently - sometimes during
the day and sometimes at night. They lived in the seediest places and sometimes
on the street. She never really had any friends, well at least not past grade
two or three when they had managed to stay one place for long enough for her to
make a friend. But then they moved suddenly and she never got to see her friend
again. So she learned to be self-reliant and to look after herself. So when
she’s told her life is a lie, she plans on getting answers... on her own.
Guy has gone into business with a partner and started Knight’s
Associates, which is a private investigative business, mostly solving cyber
crimes. He was trained to be a police officer and lasted a little over a year
but soon realized he wasn’t cut out for it. He was raised by his
step-grandmother who saved him from a life of foster homes at the age of nine
after his mom died and his real grandmother decided to create a scandal and use
him as a means for blackmail. Guy knows how lucky he has been to have been
taken in not only by such a wonderful woman but a wealthy one. He never wanted
for anything but he also never took advantage of it either. So when she asks
him to find her granddaughter who had been kidnapped as a baby, he can’t say
no.

About The
Author-
Maggie Thom took the challenge and leapt off, leaving a full time
twenty year career in management, to write full time. After her initial panic
that she might need a straight jacket, she published her first book Captured
Lies, October 2012. And now is excited to release her second novel, Tainted
Waters, April, 2013. Her third book, Deceitful Truths (sequel to Captured Lies)
available fall of 2013. An avid reader and writer her whole life, she decided
to break the monotony of wishing to be an author by making it happen. Married
to her best friend, she is learning that humor, love and patience help her
navigate her way through her twins’ teen years.
Her motto: Escape to read and Read to escape. "Maggie Thom writes a fast paced thriller laced with romance that
keeps the reader interested and on edge!" InDtale Magazine
