Cathi Stoler is an award-winning advertising creative director and copywriter turned mystery novelist. Her debut novel, "Telling Lies," published by Camel Press, is now available in Trade Paperback or as an eBook at Amazon and Barnes & Noble.

With "Telling Lies," Cathi Stoler uses the intricacies and passions of the art world to take readers on a suspenseful transatlantic journey of deceit, betrayal and heroism. There is a new crime writer on the block, with a fully realized cast of characters and all the mayhem they can bring. —David Simon, Creator and Executive Producer of "Treme" and "The Wire"

A chance encounter in Florence's Uffizi Museum plunges "Women Now" editor Laurel Imperiole and private investigator Helen McCorkendale into a deadly maze of greed and deceit. From Italy to the gritty streets of New York, the two women pursue their perp in this non-stop crime thriller.

How many lies does it take to get away with murder? Laurel and Helen find out as they thread their way through a sinister skein of lies that could end in death.

Cathi’s next two books in the series, "Keeping Secrets," which delves into the subject of hidden identity, and "The Hard Way," a story about international diamond trafficking, will be published by Camel Press in October 2013 and February 2014.

“Bar None”—a Murder On the Rocks Mystery—is the first book in her new mystery series featuring female Lower East Side bar owner, Jude Dillane. Cathi hopes to have this thriller available by the end of 2014.
