John Egan is a misfit, a 12-year-old in the body of a grown man with the voice of a giant who insists on the ridiculous truth. He has been able to detect lies for as long as he can remember and diligently keeps track of them, large and small, in a log of lies. With an obsession for the Guinness Book of World Records, a keenly inquisitive mind, and a kind of faith, John is like a tuning fork, sensitive to the vibrations within himself and his family's shifting dynamics, remaining hopeful despite the unfortunate cards life deals him.
