Daniel Wallace, author of Big Fish, has written his first memoir about his friend and brother-in-law William Nealy. Nealy was Wallace's inspiration: a cartoonist, author, outdoorsman. Wallace admired him so much that he became a writer himself. They first met when William was dating Daniel's sister Holly. Their friendship was shattered when William took his own life, leaving Daniel with a search for the reason why.
