Roadwork

In an ordinary small town, an ordinary man lives—slowly but surely descending into the abyss of black hatred toward himself and others. All it takes is a reason for hatred to spill out and take control. And when that reason is found, there is no stopping an ordinary man who has decided his fate…

Barton Dawes begins his story with buying a weapon. Another quiet madness in the provincial gray shroud of an American town, stirred by a single event in many years—the construction of a federal highway. Bart loses his home, a piece of his life, with its sorrows and joys, memories. No wonder he doesn’t want to give up what rightfully belongs to him.
