Philip Richards is a man who appears to be everything he isn't. Well dressed, well spoken and successful by any measure, his world is changed overnight when his beautiful wife, Laura, dies unexpectedly. Lost and adrift, he finally decides to take charge of his life once again and strikes out on a completely different path, one that leads to murder and mayhem. But the strange things about all this is that Philip isn't slowed or intimated by these events. Instead he seems to thrive on them. Is Philip all he appears to be, or is there a dark side that is worse than the terrible people he faces? Is he the hunted or the hunter? And do you find yourself rooting for this complex man, or secretly fearing for those around him? When does justice cross the line and become something worse than the crime it is supposed to punish? Philip's story might answer that question for you. Then again, maybe you will have more questions than you had before, and very unsettling answers indeed.
