When it comes to relationships, Colin Singleton has a very specific type: girls named Katherine. He has dated nineteen of them, and every single one has dumped him. Fresh off the heartbreak of Katherine number nineteen and fearing his days as a child prodigy are behind him, Colin is a boy in search of a "Eureka" moment to prove he is a genius. With his best friend Hassan in tow, he embarks on a road trip with ten thousand dollars in his pocket and a singular mission: to develop a mathematical theorem that can predict the future of any relationship and explain his romantic misfortune.

Their journey leads them to the small town of Gutshot, Tennessee, where a new friendship and unexpected adventures challenge Colin's understanding of the world. Far from the predictable patterns of his past, he must confront the reality that not every problem can be solved with an equation. This is a story about the journey to find your own significance, exploring the space between who you are and who you want to be, and discovering that some things in life defy any formula.
