About Lies with Man

In Nava’s latest novel featuring lawyer Henry Rios, it is 1986 in Los Angeles, and Rios is counsel for a group of young activists protesting a ballot initiative that could allow health officials to force people with HIV into quarantine camps. When one of his clients is implicated in the bombing of an evangelical church that kills its pastor, who publicly supported the quarantine initiative, Rios finds himself with a client suddenly facing the death penalty.
