The million-copy bestselling author of Yes Man and Join Me immerses himself in the contagious, dangerous world of disinformation, everyday lies, trolls, conspiracy theories and those trying to fight back.

'Shocking, timely and - as you’d expect from Danny Wallace - very funny' - Adam Kay

'Thrilling, thought-provoking, funny and wise. Danny has an incredible knack for taking the bizarre fringes and rabbit holes of humanity and making them compulsively laugh-out-loud readable.' - Danny Robins, journalist, presenter of Uncanny and writer of 2:22 A Ghost Story.
'Danny Wallace lightens this dark topic about lies and propaganda with his trademark humour and gets the balance just right' – BBC, Books to Read in 2024.
Have you been keeping your eye on your grandma lately? Have you been calling her enough? You sure she’s not spending too much time on YouTube? Is she talking fondly of dictators? Has she suddenly started quietly muttering in the Aldi queue about the "Jewish Space Lasers" she’s heard are setting wildfires around the world to make sure everyone believes in climate change? When was the moment the world began to believe anything?

Trust no one
Family lies
The believers
The other side of the screen
It will all get much worse
