Glendo Penny is man on the edge... of oblivion. A string of bad luck has culminated in the deaths of his wife and unborn child, this in a truck accident with Penny at the wheel. Consigning himself to damnation, he takes the express lane of alcoholism and social isolation. But fate has other plans for him. Reeled back into the human fold by a collection of locals sharing the common bond of loss, he finds new purpose in life and a shot at redemption.Meanwhile, there's been a spate of kidnappings (and murders) of young women in Southern Colorado in recent years, the law, hampered by budgetary restrictions, spinelessness, and political correctness, singularly failing to find - and deal with - the perpetrators. It is left then for the survivors - parents of raptored children and their allies - to act themselves, a vigilantism which 'dare not mention its name.'The allies are many and varied, as are the villains, and Penny finds himself essentially a bounty hunter, working pro bono. Along with a crew of similarly gifted hunters, he takes to the highway, tracking down one killer after another, going places the law won't go, and using methods the law won't use.
