ABOUT THIS BOOK It is possible that since this book's publication you will have heard that I have died in 'suspicious circumstances'. Obviously I hope that will not be the case, but I believe it is worth taking the risk in order to get this story out there. Why would one of Silicon Valley's most powerful billionaires offer a British ghostwriter a million dollars to write the autobiography of Hollywood's biggest star? Only once he is living and working among the world's richest and most beautiful people does the ghost realise that there is way more than a publishing deal at stake. The ghostwriter must face the dark underbelly of the tech industry. He must face corruption and manipulation, come to blows with people who will do anything to remain at the top of their game and uncover the dark truth behind what it really means to be an influencer . . . MY REVIEW Unique, current, and compelling, WHAT LIES AROUND US by Andrew Crofts is a story of two edges and held my interest to the end. When British ghostwriter, Andrew, is given the opportunity of a lifetime to fly to America and write an autobiography of one of its biggest and richest stars, he knows he would be a fool not to take it. But what starts out like a light and exciting opening in to this new world soon takes on a darker edge where the cult of 'celebrity' and power of social media will all come into question. As Andrew delves deeper into his assignment, secrets, betrayals, and lies all begin to unfold and he soon realises that everything has a price in this industry, and someone always has to pay. Dark and powerful, WHAT LIES AROUND US by Andrew Crofts is thought-provoking and will have you looking at elements of the world we live in, from a different angle. A fascinating read that I recommend to fiction fans of all genres. AUTHOR BIO Andrew Crofts is an author and ghostwriter. He has published more than 80 books, around a dozen of which have been number one bestsellers. His name first became known amongst publishers for the stories he brought them by the otherwise disenfranchised. Travelling all over the world he worked with victims of enforced marriages in North Africa and the Middle East, sex workers in the Far East, orphans in war-torn areas like Croatia and dictatorships like Romania, and abused children everywhere. The enormous success of these books brought many very different people to his door; first came the celebrities from the worlds of film, music, television and sport, and then the real elite in the form of world leaders and the mysterious, powerful people who finance them, arm them and, in some cases, control them. Invited to pubic and private palaces all over Africa, Asia, Latin America and the Middle East and tax havens from Monaco to private islands in Bermuda, Andrew listened as they revealed their secrets, gradually piecing together the truth of who really runs the world and how they do it.
