Lying Down with Dogs

Angebote / Angebote:

Rod Gaylord lives a quiet life with his wife and nothing in his past but a long-forgotten misdemeanor to sully his horizon. Or so he thought. Then Dusty arrives with a jungle tan and a penchant for ballroom dancing, wanting Rod to launder money through his work's payroll. This together with a crooked and debt-ridden boss, leads Rod into a world of ill-judged affairs, a disastrous drug deal and a high speed chase across counties in a battered Austin Allegro. His life spirals out of control eventually leading to a dead girlfriend, a lost wife and mental disintegration. The story is of how even the most unassuming can unexpectedly find themselves in circumstances they are unequal to, and yet can find the resources to face ruin and affect their destiny. However, it is also about how redemption and reclamation are only ever partial. That the past is never fully escaped from and to a large extent we all choose our own downfall.
