Jack Minyard is a private dick down on his luck. Hes badly overweight and on the wrong side of sixty. Hes lost his marriage, and maybe a little of his mind, too. After narrowly escaping charges in a statewide fraud and money laundering scandal, Jack has been working private contracts and counting on the kindness of strangers (not to mention a pile of prescription drugs) to get by. In a last-ditch play to resurrect his career, Jack takes on a case that puts him on the wrong side of thetracks and in the midst of some of the roughest trade going.
