Publisher's Synopsis
Warren Holt has escaped his trailer-trash background through hard work and playing by the rules. But when he is unjustly fired by a Southern California newspaper, punches out a supervisor in a fit of rage and inadvertently kills the man, Holt's middle-class dreams are destroyed. He heads for Denver, hoping to evade the police long enough to kill his boss' bosses. Can an ordinary person with no previous history of violence become a "weapon" in the service of personal revenge and social justice -- and if he can, at what cost? In the car with Holt is his 15-year-old Latino stepson, Ray Duarte, a nice kid who has his own agenda, especially after he meets a beautiful Mexican girl -- perhaps a victim of sex trafficking -- in remote Green River, Utah.
