King Kon knows he's a man of grand vision-mostly because he can't stop staring at himself in the mirror. Puffed with pride unjustified, the delusional dingbat hatches another idiotic idea: build himself a private, giant putt-putt golf course. He's already ordered his trophies.
Little setback? He has to burn down an entire valley and village to make room. But what's a minor hiccup?
"HEEKEW!" That hiccup came from Justice, a nineteen-year old dairy farmer from the doomed valley who is plagued by self-doubt, nervous hiccups and fainting. And yet, he is chosen to infiltrate the castle, lead the rebellion and stop the impending destruction of home.
In mere days, he finds himself saddled with the worst job in history: Groomer of the Royal Stool. It puts him closer to King Kon than any sane person would want to be. But, this is where he learns the King's massive secret.
As he navigates this most absurd and dangerous Royal Court, hoping to find an ally, he wonders if it might be Royal Seamstress, Tailor Swift? Royal Chef, Dr. Fill? Impossible to know for sure and too dangerous to guess until sure.
As he finds the spine he never knew he had, Justice's mission becomes bigger than the salvation of his home valley. He's determined to set free the Cheaps, Lowly-Low's and Ordinaries, the indentured servants who keep the kingdom running but who live in abject poverty.
But, when that explosive end comes, exposing the King's secret, will Justice run fast enough to avoid the fallout?
