Recently-Released from prison—twenty-four weeks for control of the truckload of black-market saguaro cacti—and in heavy debt to an unforgiving turn seller, Jimmy Coates returns home simply to realize that his buddy has cut him out-of his inheritance. A not-unjustifiable need to settle old scores and new directs Jimmy on the robbery spree that wipes out four of his siblingis dry-cleaning companies.
