What is The Lie-catcher in the Primate House : a Novel about?
The Lie-Catcher in the Primate House is a thriller about stopping the smuggling of endangered species. It involves true-life crime, exotic locations, and a unique supporting character. Through the eyes of the heroine (an expert in detecting human deceptiveness) the reader enters the worlds of animal smuggling, academic politics, chimpanzees who have learned to use sign language, and black market procurement of experimental animals for medical laboratories. All the key plot elements of the novel are based on fact: signing chimpanzees, international task forces tackling the smuggling of endangered species, dangers faced by protectors of wildlife, and a dangerous cult in Uganda. Equally genuine is the science of detecting deception, the basis of the heroine's professional expertise. These elements are woven together to tell a story that is at once exciting and serious.
