Story: In what would cause a fantastic media frenzy, Clifford Irving sells his bogus biography of Howard Hughes to a premiere publishing house in the early 1970s.

Early in 1971, the publishing company McGraw-Hill passes on s new novel. Hes desperate for money, so, against the backdrop of Nixons reelection calculations, Irving claims he has s cooperation to write Hughess autobiography. With the help of friend , Irving does research, lucks into a manuscript written by a long-time Hughes associate, and plays on corporate greed. Hes quick-thinking and outrageously bold. Plus, he banks on Hughess reluctance to enter the public eye. At the same time, hes trying to rebuild his marriage and deflect the allure of his one-time mistress, . Can he write a good book, take the money, and pull off the hoax?

In 1971, author is feeling cheated when his latest manuscript, which looked sure to be published by McGraw-Hill, is ultimately rejected. After that rejection, his primary contact at the publishing house, Andrea Tate, seems ready to place him on her do not call list. As such, Clifford tells her that he is working on the most important book of the twentieth century, which in reality is a total fabrication, as is his ultimate idea for the book: that he has been asked by billionaire recluse to write his autobiography. Clifford, who has never met Hughes and has never been contacted by Hughes, is banking on past history of Hughes not coming out in public to decry Cliffords book as being a fake, as is the situation with a current case involving TWA which could cost Hughes monetarily if the case goes against him and which Hughes has not come out publicly to defend. If Cliffords assertions of the book are indeed true, Andrea and her colleagues at McGraw-Hill are highly interested. Along for the ride with Clifford are his long time friend and researcher, , who likes the idea when it seems to be working, but seems ready to fold under the pressure whenever they are close to being caught; and Cliffords artist wife, Edith Irving, who takes on the pseudonym Helga R. Hughes to be able to cash the checks made out to H.R. Hughes. Clifford and Dick luck into personal information about Hughes which would assist in writing an accurate autobiography. They also mysteriously come into possession of some information which if included in the book would entirely change its focus but have the potential for far reaching political consequences. But Cliffords personal life, which includes an affair with actress , and his own grip on what is true and isnt may ultimately be his downfall.
