Charlie Woodrow’s life has changed dramatically. A married man with a son, he had a good job and a nice home. All at once he finds himself on his own, living in cheap digs in the bad part of town.
Charlie was never one to easily endure the rudeness or the declining values of his fellow men; however, the “normalcy” of his previous existence made it somewhat bearable. Since his life has changed, his intolerance of others has reached the level of misanthropy. When his feelings of powerlessness become so devastating, he decides to do something about it.
At first getting even with the human behavior he so detests makes him feel alive. The control he has as he forces people at gunpoint to reevaluate their conduct provides him with a feeling of strength he has never experienced before. And then he confronts the wrong people.
