Not that he liked it. But every time again he would open his mouth and find himself telling a yarn to cover some shady deal. He ended up spending his life running, twisting, getting out of one tight spot and quickly ending up in another. He had become mama's open favourite at home, swindled his brother, lied to his father, and has to run when his brother puts his name at the top of a hit list. Eventually he leaves and heads back to the land of his father.
Life is tough for Jacob.
It is made no easier by his crazy schemes and quick, double-talking mouth. He knows it. He can't seem to get away from it. But one thing. No matter how tough the odds, no matter how bleak it seems, no matter who lines up against him, Jacob is determined to succeed.
