Lying for a Living

De: Steve McCondichie

Narrado por: PJ Keller

Lying for a Living is an irreverent mid-life, coming-of-age story where an unwitting hero wrestles with his capacity to mature into a bona fide adult.

Jesse Few peddles lies. His boss and clients order a couple. His married girlfriend gets a few. His family buys several. But he saves the top-of-the-line dishonesty to sell to himself. The 49-year-old suburban rogue focuses on carousing with his golf buddies, chasing women much too young for him, and surviving the Great Recession that’s raging across the South like it's the Big Banks March to the Sea.

His rambling approach to life and love is challenged when his boozy mom believes she’s being stalked by the ghost of her long-dead first husband, and his woebegone son skirmishes with a megalomaniac preacher. A cowboy-up moment drives him to decide whether he'll saddle up and rescue his loved ones from these imminent threats or retreat to the familiar comforts of denial, avoidance, and blowing up watermelons with black-market machine guns.
