An unnamed gun finds its strange life recounted through a series of unsavory owners. Born into uncertain origins, the gun bounces between small-time crooks, violent criminals, regular Joes down on their luck, and the occasional psychopath. As the gun is passed from hand to hand, it observes the seedy underbelly of society across decades, developing a cynical, jaded personality and dark sense of humor. When the gun becomes jammed and unable to fire, it finds brief solace living with a woman who rescued it from a killer. But its days of bringing death are not over...In this gritty crime story that blends gallows humor with provocative philosophy, the gun serves up generous helpings of sex, drugs, and violence as it reflects on duty, free will, trust, and the meaning of life. Told from the fresh perspective of the murder weapon itself, this cleverly twisted story offers a noir joyride across America.
