Aprašymas

From a small Christian school in Oklahoma to the White House Situation Room to becoming the most feared polygraph operator in the country, Doug Williams said the words "YOU'RE LYING!" to thousands of people hooked up to his lie detector. People feared him and his machine. Fear has a smell and he smelled it everyday in his chamber of polygraph horrors. But Doug knows something and he knows it without any doubt, the polygraph doesn't work. It can be manipulated by the operator to give whatever results he wants. Guilty persons go free and innocent people get hammered mercilessly, all at the whim of the polygraph operator. And he knows something else. It can be beat. He could teach people to beat it and he could teach them in 5 minutes or less to do so. Armed only with his conscience Doug left everything behind to battle the 4 billion dollar a year industry and engage in the ultimate psychological battle of man versus machine to stop the insanity. Taking on all comers and challengers, he won every battle until....they put him in prison. In prison, some men cower. Some men give up. One man is innocent. Now he's out. Game on.
