This is a thriller in which people make decisions best described as morally dubious and, mostly, not a lot bad happens to them in the long term. Since most of the story is driven by a series of awkwardly implausible coincidences, I guess that's all right. It's like a fingerpaint version of Fargo or something: all bad stupid people doing varying degrees of bad things, for various bad reasons, with varying degrees of stupidity, in thick smeary stick-figure prose.
