| Burke Devore is an average man. Married with one child, he's been unemployed for two years, the victim of the downsizing that raises the stock value for shareholders of the paper plant he used to work at.
He's gone to interviews, sent resumes, but he's come to a conclusion. The competition is getting in his way. He needs to eliminate the competition. With despair and rage pounding at his soul he puts together a meticulous plan that gives him the exact locations of the other people gunning for his position, and with grim determination he goes about taking them out of his way, once and for all. He's repulsed at first, but it gets easier with each one, and as the body count rises and unexpected complications develop can Burke keep the deadly secrets inside him from his suspecting wife and the police? | ||
