"Perfectly portrays the cost of self-deception and the quest to find and reclaim your true self." — Jay Papasan, New York Times bestselling co-author of The One Thing "This book checked all the boxes I want in a novel. You will want to read Tim's delightful book." — A.J. Jacobs, New York Times bestselling author of The Year of Living Biblically Eric's life is imploding. An $80,000 IRS bill, a failing business, and a marriage hanging by a thread converge when a shadowy political operative offers him an escape: run a presidential campaign, betray his principles, and pocket enough cash to make it all disappear. But salvation comes with a price tag his soul can't afford. As the temptation to compromise everything pulls him deeper into dark money politics and personal betrayal, his wife issues an ultimatum, and his carefully constructed lies begin to crumble. The only person who might save him is a therapist who forces him to confront the wounded child he's been running from his entire life. In this gripping blend of campaign trail insider fiction and raw domestic drama, one man must choose between political power and personal redemption. This poignant exploration of mental health, marital repair, and healing childhood trauma will resonate with readers who love relatable characters navigating impossible choices. Perfect for fans of literary fiction that digs deep into fatherhood, marriage, and the messy work of emotional growth. Can one man face his darkest self before he destroys everything worth saving?
