"A Great Big Lie"
by Edward Martin III

Burke came from a bad Chicago neighborhood, filled with pain and death. At fourteen, he ran away, put himself through school, and became a respected lawyer. Still, he felt like a walking lie, so one night he attended a meeting for My Life's A Great Big Lie Anonymous. All his co-workers were there, too.
