His sister, a ranch owner in Wyoming, calls for help. Unknown forces are out to harm Josh's family. His ex-wife plays a game of kill Joshua, while Chinese drug lords front a school that trains young ladies to seduce older men for power and profit. Evil lurks in every corner waiting to attack the Tarpin family from dark, menacing places to test The Drunk's fight for sobriety, as Josh changes from a meek mellow fellow into a heartless man dying for a drink and killing to get one. My head is laid back, I am being garroted! I see dark hair, and a grotesque face masked in hate."Flower--what are you doin...?""Die! You son-of-a-bitch...Die!"
