In this sequel to Pictures Don't Lie, Derek Landino is now committed to his new role as reigning monarch over the small, European microstate of Calina. Although he is happily engaged to the love of his life, Christine, he finds himself in a dangerous, politically corrupt environment plagued with a history of revolution, poverty, and assassination attempts.
Unknown to Derek, his precarious situation, which includes friction in his relationship as Christine struggles to adjust to her new life, is about to get even more complicated when he receives a call from his brother Nicola, who needs to urgently flee New York City.
Taking refuge in Calina under Derek's protection, Nicola takes his place as the prince by his brother's side. But, Nicola has always been spoiled and entitled, harboring resentment toward his successful brother. He is unwilling to put much effort into his new responsibilities; that is until he meets Taya Mariano. Taya is a highly motivated, a beautiful politician, and an elected member of the parliament of Calina. As Nicola navigates through the dark scheming world of Calina, he quickly finds himself at a crossroad. And the decision that he must make could place the woman he loves in mortal danger.
In this twisted tale of False Impressions, it isn't clear to see who is good and who is evil. Or, could some be guilty of both?
