Clifford Irving is an American author renowned for works such as "Daddy’s Girl," "Final Argument," "Trial," and "Tom Mix and Pancho Villa." He gained notoriety for his hoax "Autobiography of Howard Hughes," which led to his imprisonment. This episode of his life was later adapted into a film starring Richard Gere.

In "Daddy's Girl," Clifford Irving recounts the true crime story of James and Virginia Campbell, a popular attorney and his wife found shot dead in their Houston home. The prime suspects, their daughter Virginia and her boyfriend David, possess seemingly unbreakable alibis. Tension escalates when David confesses to his new girlfriend after his breakup with Virginia, causing a national media frenzy. This revelation thrusts the case back into the spotlight, challenging the initial investigation's findings. Irving's narrative delves into the complexities of the case, exploring the dynamics of family, betrayal, and justice.
