Summary

A family drama about the struggle to find meaning in a meaningless world.

Eric Bauer—son, husband, father, and small business owner—is slowly losing his grip on reality.

Drowning in debt and a never-ending to-do list, he finally catches a break.

To trade the torment of barely scraping by for the riches of Nashville's elite Pinnacle Club, he only needs to keep doing what he's been doing since college.

Lie.

Playing fast and loose with the truth is the easy part.

What's hard for him is figuring out how to build a meaningful life in a meaningless world.

When I stumbled upon the Story Grid world my instincts nodded their heads. After reading The Shithead I'm completely sold. Not only is it a fantastic read, it's conformation that I'm not alone in my messy lies, complex relationships, and desire to do better. Thanks, Tim, for going first and showing the way. PS. the song titles is my favourite part.

A superb read and brutally real
