No White Lies is a fast-paced thriller that will haunt you long after you’ve turned the final page.

“A new and chillingly plausible take on the intelligence failure that led the US and its allies to war in Iraq, and the global horror that followed. Dan Eaton takes us on a wild ride in this novel that explores the nature of truth and lies in a world before social media and fake news.

“The descriptions are top notch. I saw, felt, heard, tasted and smelled it all; from the wild beauty of the New Zealand wilderness, through the mean streets of Phnom Penh, the sophistication of Paris and New York, right into the raging heart of war-torn Baghdad. Eaton has achieved the near impossible – a visceral psychological thriller that is as utterly terrifying as it is personal and heartbreaking. It pushed all the right buttons” – Louise Roberts

What really happened to Lizzy McCormick?

“Truth be told, white lies are the blackest of them all. Believe me, I should know.”

This atmospheric tale centers around the disappearance of Will’s five-year-old daughter, Lizzy, who vanishes from her family’s lakeside mansion in a remote resort town in the South Island of New Zealand.

Her disappearance sends Will trawling through his past for clues about who has taken his little girl. It’s a journey of self-discovery that ultimately leaves him questioning his own sanity.

Will is a compulsive liar, a serial cheat, and a fabulist. Actions have consequences. The innocent suffer. He can’t escape his past. He can, however, choose what he will do next, and maybe – just maybe – find redemption.

But will anyone believe him if he finally tells the truth?

A novel brimming with exotic locations, spies, terrorism, conspiracy and political intrigue. Perfect for fans of John le Carré, Mick Herron, Alex Dahl and Peter May.

“Flings you succinctly through Baghdad war zones to underground Paris, from a far flung remote New Zealand lakeside resort to a Manhattan landfill.

“Eaton mixes cause and consequence throughout this international mystery / thriller … through plot layers that are so easy to visually grasp as you read, you sometimes will be sickened to your core. His writing is so visual but thankfully his craft brings a sense of beauty to the death and loss that unfolds.” – Colmaine Views
