Desde la sinceridad más absoluta, a la que nos tiene acostumbrados, Pedro Ruiz reúne en doce breves pero lúcidas disposiciones su testamento vital, además de regalarnos sus más francas (y en ocasiones mordaces) opiniones acerca de la vida y, por tanto, de la muerte, así como algunas emotivas anécdotas de despedida de unos cuantos amigos, conocidos del ámbito cultural español.

¿Quién es Don Nadie? No te lo vamos a revelar, pero te vamos a dar alguna pista: es alguien que desconoce la mentira, la hipocresía y que no se mueve por el mero afán de lucro personal... gracias a una curiosa circunstancia.Y tú te dirás: "Pero, ¿en serio que hay tipos así?" Sí que los hay, o al menos eso quiere hacernos creer Pedro Ruiz.Y tú insistirás: "¿Y se puede sobrevivir siendo tan ingenuo?" Se sobrevive, se sobrevive, aunque malamente-Y tú seguro que te preguntarás: "¿No será que está un poco tocado del tarro?" Según se mire, lo mismo somos nosotros los que estamos tocados.Y tú, por último, querrás saber: "¿Tiene un final feliz?" Comprenderás que a eso no podamos responderte, pero te adelantamos que te dejará con la boca abierta, porque este libro tiene todo el humor, intriga, acción y suspense que puede esperarse del estilo punzante que ha hecho de Pedro Ruíz el humorista más temido por los poderosos.

¿Qué importa de verdad en la vida? ¿Cómo contárselo a un hijo? En este libro, Pedro Ruiz hace un recorrido por todos los temas importantes (del dinero a la muerte, del sexo a la política, de la soledad y el miedo a la televisión o el fútbol) sin andarse por las ramas ni caer en sensiblerías, sermones ni dogmatismos. Con una sinceridad y un valor que desarman. Directo al corazón.
