#1 New Release in Biographies of Actors & Actresses

How a Hollywood sleuth saved a pirate's honor.

AS FEATURED ON

Those who followed the Depp v. Heard defamation trial might think they know the full story but beneath the surface lies a narrative shaped by shadowed truths and unspoken realities.

In July 2019, I was hired by Amber Heard’s legal team to probe into the life of Johnny Depp. The ‘Aquaman’ actress’s request was clear: validate her claims against her ex-husband, the globally renowned ‘Pirates of the Caribbean’ star, known for his charismatic and at times, controversial persona. I believe that to truly understand someone, one must start at the very beginning where the seeds of the present are sown in the soil of the past.

What Are Readers Saying

Fascinating true history of two lives
This book did not disappoint. My admiration for Mr Depp unlike most, has come from the kind of human he is and has always been Mr Barresi has proven this by coming forward with the facts as stated in this book. He and Mr Depp do in fact have a lot in common. While i was hoping his book would reveal what i believed to be true for many many decades, i also hoped it would include a look inside his own fascinating life and it did. Two amazing men, two fascinating stories, one book built on experience and facts. MSM, movements & lies can be dangerous things, destroy lives. But if we are lucky a hero comes along to reveal the truth, the facts. Thank you Paul for bringing the truth and facts forward not only in Johnny’s life but your own. I hold great respect for you both.

Real life Ray Donovan. This book did not disappoint. Great read!
I was emotionally touched by "Johnny Depp's Accidental Fixer" on many levels. Barresi's book is more than just another story about Johnny Depp's tumultuous marriage and breakup with Amber Heard. It offers a candid glimpse into the personal struggles Barresi faced in his own life, remarkably similar to the challenges Johnny encountered during his formative years. "Johnny Depp's Accidental Fixer" took me on an up-close and personal tour into the dark world of a Hollywood fixer, a world where only a few are daring enough to tread, and where real-life heroes are born. .

Amazing journey
This is an amazing journey that can only be told to the eyes of the author and you sit back and watch what is around each corner. I was mesmerized to see the truth and how the truth unfolded.

Paul Barresi is a Legend!
I have seen Paul Barresi's name a few times over the years and this book caught my attention.
I purchased after reading the description and Boy, was I fascinated!
This man was working on the sidelines and in background for so many high-end Hollywood situations and cases.
I never knew about some of these, and of course, that was the idea, since most were handled privately.
Terrific read, and worthy of a film adaptation for sure!!!!

The insider mechanics of a private investigator.
I have always been an avid private investigator enthusiast, but I must admit this book as written was an insightful journey. We all watched the Depp / Heard court case on television, however reading the inner workings of a private investigator completely elevated the entire story. Clearly after reading the book, Paul certainly has the background and expertise to bring insight and life to the entire story. I urge and strongly recommend this book as a must read.

WOW! Amazing book. Mr. Barresi really dose a deep dive into Depp's fascinating life going way back to his childhood. He reveals how a mega stars life is not veery different from our own challenges in life since childhood. His journey investigating Johnny and arriving to the truth was a page turner. I highly recommend Paul's book and can't wait to read the next.
