"Investigative journalist, Stephen Davis, raises new questions about the disappearance of Sydney man Richard Sajko, one of the city's toughest cold cases." * Daily Telegraph * "Davis...is the only journalist I know who has paid significant attention to BA149 [British Airways flight from Heathrow to Kuala Lumpar, that, on 1 August 1990, via Kuwait City and Madras had 367 passengers and 18 crew held hostage]. Governments become ever more proficient in covering up inconvenient truths." -- Peter Wilby * NewStatesman America * "Every page is quite extraordinary" * The Matthew Wright Show * "Stephen Davis uses his skills as an investigative journalist to expose the tools at play in the propagation of falsehoods by governments, organisations and the media". * Good Reading Magazine * "If we end up in a society where nobody can tell the difference between truth and fiction that will be devastating for us all" * Good Reading Podcast * "Truthteller author Stephen Davis's investigation into the death of an Australian scientist in the Antarctic uncovers a culture far removed from the pristine image of life on the ice" * Maxim Magazine * "Very well written. It is compelling. A sort of travelogue into the heart of darkness known as spin, conspiracy theories, misinformation and truth prevention". * The Fourth Estate Podcast * "deep fakes are going to make it even harder to tell the difference between fact and fiction" * ABC Radio National - Sunday Extra with Hugh Riminton * "Drawing on author Stephen Davis' three decades experience as an investigative journalist, Truthteller uses real-world stories to illustrate the tools that governments and corporations use to deceive the media and the public." * Hype Magazine * "an entertaining and unsettling compilation of some of the world's most elaborate official conspiracies. It serves as an acute reminder of just how mendacious - and gullible - we can be." * The Australian Financial Review * "Truthteller reinforces the value of journalism and the need for rigorous investigative reporting in a democracy." * Santa Barbara Independent *
