For once, it is and the only man on his side is Ted Lawrence, a washed-up actor logging too many miles on the comeback trail. Charlie agrees to help Ted rescue his career and meets a comedian who offers him a chance to become a self-help guru, a housekeeper who spies on him, and a cast of off-beat characters in a story filled with action, hilarity, and weirdness. Charlie faces his fears, his phobias, and (worst of all) his family, as Los Angeles becomes the heart of the end of the world. (Parental guidance is suggested.)

Book Description
In 1900 in China a peasant movement known as the Boxers rose up and tried to destroy its Western oppressors. The culminating event of the Boxer Rebellion was the siege of the Western legations in Peking. In isolated Peking, a horde of brightly dressed, acrobatic, anti-Western and anti-Christian Boxers surrounded the fortified diplomatic legation compound, and rumors about the torture and murder of 900 Western diplomats, soldiers, and missionaries swirled throughout the foreign media. Scholars agree that animosity toward Christian missionaries was a major cause of the Boxer Rebellion, but most accounts neglect the missionaries and emphasize instead the diplomats and soldiers who weathered the siege and defeated the Chinese in battle. This book gives equivalent attention to the missionaries, their work, the impact they had on China, and the controversies arising in the aftermath of the Boxer Rebellion. It focuses particularly on one of the most distinguished American missionaries, William Scott Ament, whose brave and resourceful heroism was tarnished by hubris and looting.
