About the Author

Rob Lenihan was born and raised in Brooklyn and worked as a police reporter in Pennsylvania for several years.

Editorial Reviews

"Rob Lenihan's first novel might have come off the pages of the crime beat he covered as a police reporter. But Born Speaking Lies gives him the opportunity to create fully fleshed mobsters and a lone hero, Billy the Kid, trying to get away from them and live in a small town with a good-hearted woman. But vendettas must be paid and the reader watches in horror as a confrontation nears. The writing transcends the genre, never sacrificing white knuckle suspense."

Sonia Pilfer

"Rob brings all the excitement of police reporting to his debut novel. He puts readers through their paces at breakneck speed. And that's no lie."
