Opis

The Hague, Holland 1976 After a procession of hapless relationships, 23 year-old Lana Milton finds herself recklessly falling for a man who should be out of bounds, but despite fighting with her emotions the affair begins, an affair which can only cause pain and heartache; not only to Lana but - more importantly - to the innocent party. Coming face to face with the one person she is hurting the most, Lana has to make a decision which breaks her heart. She knows that she is the only one to make the choice, something she can only do by lying, a lie which betrays the truth. Lana's distortion of the truth closes the door on the only real love she has known. In life's ups and downs even her best friend Tess, is not what she seems. Tess turns on her, leaving her and their friendship in tatters. Lana moves on to a new start in London where she meets rich, tormented Howard Marshall. Howard is frustratingly aware that his love for Lana is not reciprocated. Slowly, over-time his attempts to control her with his furtive mind-games and calculated derisory tactics only serve to curtail the chance of her ever loving him back in return. After nearly 20 years of manipulation, Howard's desperate struggle to break the woman he loves finally backfires when Lana, now middle-aged and fuelled with the still-burning embers of her long-ago love, confronts Howard. She stands up to his bullying and devious malicious ways, her anger fills her with a renewed strength in which she finds the courage to leave him to start her life yet again. Now in her late fifties and living in a calm, non-disruptive world close to her family, Lana is content and yearns for nothing more in life. But fate has other ideas as it smashes through the door to bring her life around to yet another new start. The Biggest Lie - a tale of love, friendship, hope and strength is set in the era of glitter-ball discos which grows to maturity in the 21st century. Proof, that it's never too late for anything...
