Plot
The book focuses on the protagonist Jimmie Bernwood, a down-on-his-luck former tabloid reporter, his attempts to ghost-write President Trump's memoir and his investigation into a murder.
Publishers Weekly states that Trump is the most harshly criticized of the multiple figures criticized in the book.
