<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>"<i>The Woman Who Wasn't There</i> is a riveting real-life mystery, a probe into the inner depths of humanity. This is a page-turner for every American" (<i>Star Tribune</i>, Minneapolis). </b> <p/><b>T</b>ania Head's astonishing account of her experience on September 11, 2001, was a tale of loss and recovery, of courage and sorrow, of horror and inspiration. It transformed her into one of the great victims and heroes of that tragic day. But there was something very wrong with Tania's story--a terrible secret that would break the hearts and challenge the faith of all those she claimed to champion. <p/>Told with the unique insider perspective of Angelo J. Guglielmo, Jr., a filmmaker shooting a documentary on the efforts of the Survivors' Network, and previously one of Tania's closest friends, <i>The Woman Who Wasn't There </i>is the story of one of the most audacious and bewildering quests for acclaim in recent memory--one that poses fascinating questions about the essence of morality and the human need for connection at any cost.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>A riveting real-life mystery, a probe into the inner depths of humanity. This is a page-turner for every American.-- "The Star Tribune"<br><br>In this disturbing, riveting reporting of Head's tenure as the face of the survivor movement, Fisher (After the Fire) and Guglielmo (a filmmaker) depict a woman who inspires anger and heartbreak but also admiration.-- "Publisher's Weekly"<br><br>"Not since Professor Harold Hill in The Music Man has a con been portrayed in such an empathetic and yet unsparing manner. At the end of Fisher and Guglielmo's masterfully nuanced portrait, Tania Head's deception of the survivors becomes understandable -- even as it remains unforgivable -- as a remarkable outgrowth of the capacity of the human psyche to deceive others by deceiving itself first.--John J. Farmer, Jr., former Senior Counsel and Team Leader to the 9/11 Commission and author of The Ground Truth: The Untold Story of America Under Attack on 9/11<br><br>I finished reading this book weeks ago, but I can't put it down. It continues to haunt me and it will you as well. A story impossible to believe...except it's all true.--Meredith Vieira<br><br>Thought provoking, heart wrenching, and unbelievable - if it weren't completely true. Even knowing the outcome, I could not put the book down, awed by the stunning impact of one woman on so many lives. Tania's story embodies the quote On 9-11 the best of humanity met the worst of humanity. I could feel the shock, the pain and the struggle the survivors suffered at the hands of a very disturbed woman.--Marian Fontana, author of the New York Times bestseller A Widow's Walk<br><br>"Alternately heartbreaking and horrifying, The Woman Who Wasn't There is a compelling real-life mystery as disturbing as a psychological thriller. The depths of Tania Head's deception hit me like a punch in the gut."--Terence Winter, Creator & Executive Producer, Boardwalk Empire<br><br>"Taut and riveting as a mystery novel, except that it's all true. The tale of Tania Head, the 'celebrity survivor' is a fascinating psychological study of the best and worst of human nature. In their deft, compelling narrative, Robin Gaby Fisher and Angelo J. Guglielmo, Jr. slowly, but inexorably, lift the curtain on one of the saddest, senseless, and yet most spectacular frauds in recent history. You will not be able to put this book down until you finish the last sentence, and when you do, you will shake your head in wonder."--Amy Ellis Nut, author of Shadows Bright as Glass and Pulitzer Prize-winning writer for the Star-Ledger<br><br>"Through the prism of a virtually inconceivable web of lies, Robin Gay Fisher and Angelo J. Guglielmo, Jr. offer deep and compassionate insight into the true legacy of pain, guilt, and existential challenges facing those who experienced and lived through the terror of the September 11 attacks."--Alice M. Greenwald, Director, National September 11 Memorial Museum<br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Robin Gaby Fisher is the author of the <i>New York Times</i> bestseller <i>After the Fire</i>.
