Meet Earl Grey, a down-to-earth and down on his luck small-time newspaper reporter. Earl is a bit of an unreliable mess, albeit loveable, if absolutely necessary.
Much to Earl’s complete lack of surprise, he’s about to have an even worse week than his usual misfortunes. Two days after the earth-shattering arrival of an alleged God in Phoenix, Arizona, in 2005, Earl is appointed as Media Liaison to this extremely ungodlike man discovered wearing Armani in the nearby barren desert.
With God now confined to a hospital room, Earl suddenly finds himself with exclusive access to the Almighty. And with great access comes great demand, as our less than intrepid reporter quickly discovers, meeting a feast of both loveable and despicable characters. All of whom are not entirely what they seem. But one thing is certain, they all want something from this newly arrived God and plan to go through Earl to get it. However, Earl, a lifelong atheist and skeptic, has other plans and sets about to uncover this unusual man’s true identity before His time on earth runs out.
Thrust into global celebrity and a massive mid-life course correction, it isn’t long before Earl is overwhelmed, paranoid, and plagued with crippling self-doubt. But, as usual, he’ll have to sort out the whole mess by himself. Hopefully, before the world comes to an end.
