The Rules for Lying

No good will come from reading this book. The story contains theft, murder, corruption, sass talk, demons, animals committing felonies, gleefully plotted revenge, and a host of bad things happening to good people for no particular reason. It won't encourage any good habits and probably fine tune several bad ones. The only lesson learned is you have no business being a liar unless you're a good one. Peter Whistler is living an uneventful life at the Little Angels Home for Orphan Boys. Life in New Jersey is hard during the Great Depression, but Peter discovers an exceptional ability to lie. He hones the talent, convinced it will be the ticket to easy fortune and a life free of responsibilities. He certainly doesn't foresee the arrival of a murderous conjurer with mysterious designs on a little blind girl named Esther. Drawn into a nefarious plot to unleash a demon, Peter leads Esther on a desperate escape from New Jersey to the Louisiana bayou. Welcome to Peter Whistler's world...
