Timothy Dimmick is a geeky young kid trying to survive his senior year of high school and make good on a promise to his late father: become a world-class ninja and secure his legacy as the "Bruce Lee of New England." But the path he takes is littered with stumbling blocks.His mother's too busy shopping to be a loving parent, his sister lives to get him into trouble, and his best friend is a high-school dropout who is writing the Great American Screenplay from the point of view of a fetus. Tim will go to any lengths to contact his father, including a phone call to a psychic hotline and a s ance conducted by a Turkish exchange student. Also complicating Tim's life are Uncle Jack and his weird ideas about religion, a rap-loving therapist, and an Asian cyber-girlfriend."
