San Francisco, 1980.

Hustlers run the city.

And having a good story is all that matters.

Sam is fresh out of San Quentin and wants to go straight. A few hundred dollars in his pocket and a brand-new Macy's suit, and he is ready to be a new man. But when his old crime boss Paul shows back up in his life looking for the money he owes him, Sam can't talk his way out of it.

Strutting around in pencil skirts and knocking back whiskey, Kath is a far cry from the grimy street kid she used to be. And if she lifts a pair of gloves from a department store every now and then, no harm done, right?

The first time they meet, Kath smiles at him, and time freezes.

Then she punches him in the face and steals all his money.

Sam is instantly mesmerized.

But Kath is also in Paul's pocket. He pulled her out of the gutter, and now she owes him. Paul senses Sam and Kath's sizzling chemistry. He makes them a deal: they can team up on a burglary job and get their lives back.

Things between Sam and Kath heat up. But both are hiding secrets. Paul won't hesitate to play them against each other.

As danger grows, all their lies begin to unravel.

And they could lose everything.

I write fiction as Ian Bull, and nonfiction essays as Donald Ian Bull. I have a split personality, I know!

I've written five books of fiction as Ian Bull so far -- an action-adventure trilogy, THE QUINTANA ADVENTURES, and two noir romance books under the CALIFORNIA NOIR banner. People seem to like them. I hope you will, too.

As Donald Ian Bull I've written essays about swimming, a TV production guidebook, and I published a book of the early posts from my blog, CaliforniaBull.com.

My family is originally from Ontario, Canada. I grew up in San Francisco, graduated from UC Berkeley, worked at KQED in San Francisco, then moved to Los Angeles to attend UCLA Film School and stayed for a career in documentaries and reality television. I live in Studio City with my wife, Robin, and daughter, Lily.

I love living in California and telling stories. I also love communicating with my fans. Please email me: ianbullauthor@gmail.com.

A fun book to read

Reviewed in the United States on January 17, 2021

I read this book in one very enjoyable afternoon. It's fun, it's fast-paced and it's well worth reading. A crime thriller, a love story, and a tour of San Francisco as it was in the eighties. Good characters and a well-thought-out plot make this book a winner.

Suspenseful San Francisco Caper

Reviewed in the United States on June 16, 2019

Liars in Love tells the story of two unusual criminals longing for sincerity and love, but trapped in a cycle of theft and lies. It has all the virtues of a high-stakes thriller. But it's also a love letter to the San Francisco of the early '80s, a city that is now gone. Bull peppers the nail-biting tension with thoughtful asides about the contrast between life forty years ago and today, meditating on the relationship between technological progress and social decline. A fast-paced and stimulating read.

If you like a good romantic noir story, you'll like this book. I like a great heist and this one delivers. It is a fun fast read.

Ah, what could be a better read?

Reviewed in the United States on November 22, 2020

A couple of thieves in 1980s San Francisco under the thumb of a local mobster is a great combination for lovers of noir crime stories. As a lifelong resident of the Peninsula, reading stories that are sited in The City, especially those written by a native, it's a pleasure to see the names of districts, streets, Muni and streetcar lines blend into the story itself. This book was well=written where it reads like the author had fun writing it.

If you enjoy heist stories that include local color, then this is for you. If you have a dear old aunt who likes to gamble, you'll find that bonus written into this story.

A brilliant 1980 San Francisco action adventure and love story

Reviewed in the United States on December 11, 2019

This is an extremely well written story of two people who happen to be thieves on the wrong side of the law and fall in love. The story takes place in 1980 San Francisco and the author creates the brilliant character of Sam who continues to amaze with his creativity and planning. This is a wonderfully written book with interesting characters, love, sex and magic fingers massage. I greatly enjoyed reading it.

Great book!

Reviewed in the United States on September 10, 2019

I loved this book. It’s fun, funny, sordid, sexy, and it all takes place in San Francisco, my hometown. I had fun reading it. I looked forward to picking it up and I had that feeling of being sad when I finished it - the true tell of a good book. I’ve read most of Ian Bull’s books and I look forward to the next one!
