The thing about the truth is; it doesn't get out much...
Colin Jekyll is an 'Events Manager'. And a liar. Colin's real name is Frank Canon, and his real job title is 'Reality Enforcer'. And the lies don't stop there; they only get bigger.
Canon works for the Agency, protecting the status quo. A multilingual lone wolf with an unreliable history and a fear of flying, Canon covers up continuity errors; those inexplicable events most other people call 'miracles'. He adjusts outbreaks of clairvoyance and drunken weather, weeping statues and spontaneous dancing plagues before they become common knowledge, and before people begin to panic, because people's faith in consensus reality needs to be enforced.
Fortunately for Frank and the Agency, most people are naturally suspicious of the truth.
