The Truth Hides in Plain Sight
Imagine sitting across from someone who's lying to your face. Their words sound convincing, but something feels off. That uncomfortable intuition is your brain detecting subtle inconsistencies-and with the right knowledge, you can transform this vague feeling into concrete awareness. Former CIA officers Philip Houston, Michael Floyd, and Susan Carnicero have spent decades interrogating spies, terrorists, and criminals where lives literally depended on separating truth from fiction. Their methodology isn't about becoming a human lie detector, but rather learning to spot specific behaviors that signal potential deception. We're naturally terrible at detecting lies. Most of us operate with a "truth bias"-assuming others are honest despite research showing the average person tells at least ten lies daily. We're further hampered by cultural myths about deception ("liars can't look you in the eye") and cognitive biases that lead us to trust people we like. The solution? Stop trying to detect truthfulness and focus exclusively on deception. This counterintuitive approach cuts through our psychological barriers and reveals what's happening right before our eyes.
