Reviews
" Golden State is a prescient, devastating commentary on humanity's disintegrating attachment to reality and truth, expertly told through the prism of a police-procedural, dystopian nightmare. Winters has written a 1984 for the 21st century. Not just a thrilling book, but an important one."-- Blake Crouch, author of Dark Matter, "At a time in the real world when everybody seems to own their version of the truth and phrases like "alternative facts" are used to cover falsehoods, Golden State is, no lie, a fascinating examination that takes fidelity and correctness down a freaky Orwellian path."-- USA Today, "An entertaining newtake on the venerable genre-blending of noir and science fiction."-- The Los Angeles Review of Books, "This near-future thriller by Edgar winner Winters is likely to provoke discussion."-- Publishers Weekly, "Like any good dystopian yarn, Golden State shows . . . how any organization or government can warp good intentions into truly harmful ones."-- The Verge, "Golden State is a gripping and brainy page-turner. . . . Winters is especially good at keeping his readers off-balance. Not even his biggest fans will see some of the twists and turns he's built into this, his best book yet."-- Library Journal, starred review, "'Golden State' is science fiction at its finest, a propulsive narrative filled with complex ideas that are expressed by engaging characters who occupy a rich and detailed world."-- The Maine Edge, "Nothing speaks to the power of a weapon like it inspiring a work of speculative fiction, and Ben H. Winter's Golden State is the dystopian take on the new tool of war du jour : lies."-- Paste Magazine, 'One of the Best Books of January', "Once again, Ben H. Winters creates a world cleverly skewed a few crucial degrees from our own. . . . Winters is well aware of the tropes of dystopian noir, and it is fun to watch him mix and match them to good effect. . . . The detective plot works well, but it is in its questioning of the nature of truth and falsehood that the novel excels. . . . Smart, intricate and propulsive, Golden State is proof that Winters deserves our continued attention as one of crime fiction's most inventive practitioners."-- San Francisco Chronicle, "A perfectly poised ontological-thriller-comedy-dystopian-allegorical-page-turner, yet with tenderly real characters in its chewy center, this turned out to be just the thing I was looking for."-- Jonathan Lethem, "Mr. Winters has won major awards in both the mystery and speculative-fiction genres. The brain-teasing Golden State exists in a space where those two forms coexist. As a consequence, a sympathetic reader's imaginings may persist long after the book's puzzles have been solved."-- Wall Street Journal, "Not many writers would take on Orwell, Ray Bradbury, the nature of truth, and the current administration all at a blow. Big shoes to fill--and they fit Ben H. Winters just fine. Golden State grabs notions of disinformation and literalism and brilliantly turns them on their head to see what falls from their pockets."-- James Sallis, author of Drive, "In Golden State, Winters has fashioned a wry commentary on our current era of fake news."-- The Guardian [UK], "Winters has a knackfor creating appealing detective fictions that skew reality inthought-provoking ways, producing a hybrid of the familiar and the uncanny. . .. As you read, you feel your perception of the world slipping and warping. Winters brilliantly imagines the quotidianmanifestations of a truth-obsessed culture."-- Washington Post, "A skillful andswift-moving concoction . . . For those who like their dystopias with a dash ofhumor. No lie."-- Kirkus, "Winters is an expertat combining social commentary with gripping mystery plots, and the novel neverslows down enough to be accused of didacticism. With rich characters, frequenttwists and tense set pieces, Winters always nails the hardboiled basics."-- Shelf Awareness, starred reviews, "Thought-provoking,genre-bending . . . Winters seems to have a real affection for unusuallycompelling premises. Another fine novel from a writer whose imagination knowsno bounds."-- Booklist

Synopsis
From award-winning, New York Times bestselling novelist Ben H. Winters comes a mind-bending novel set in a world governed by absolute truth, where lies are as dangerous as murder. In a strange alternate society that values law and truth above all else, Laszlo Ratesic is a nineteen-year veteran of the Speculative Service. He lives in the Golden State, a nation standing where California once did, a place where like-minded Americans retreated after the erosion of truth and the spread of lies made public life and governance impossible. In the Golden State, knowingly contradicting the truth is the greatest crime--and stopping those crimes is Laz's job. In its service, he is one of the few individuals permitted to harbor untruths, to "speculate" on what might have happened. But the Golden State is less a paradise than its name might suggest. To monitor, verify, and enforce the truth requires a veritable panopticon of surveillance and recording. And when those in control of the facts twist them for nefarious means, the Speculators are the only ones with the power to fight back., From award-winning, New York Times bestselling novelist Ben H.
