Are You Sleeping, the debut novel of Kathleen Barber, is a murder mystery.[1][2] Barber draws on her knowledge of the law, practicing in Chicago and New York. Barber acknowledges that she was influenced by the Serial podcast, and a key element of the novel is a podcast that looks into the case of a prisoner who may have been wrongfully convicted of murder.[3] The hardcover edition was published in 2017 and the paperback in 2018.

Television rights were acquired, and Nichelle Tramble Spellman produced a television series entitled Truth Be Told for the Apple TV+ streaming service starting in 2019.[2][4][5][6][7][8] The novel was then renamed Truth Be Told in 2019 to reflect the name of the television series.
