Victor Grommack was a rising young computer executive until he drove drunk one night and killed a family of four in an accident. He lost everything he ever worked for, including his family, as he became a homeless person in the capital city of America. His life takes a drastic turn when, while sleeping in the park one morning, he sees a man's body carried to a bench by 3 men, one of whom fires a shot into the man's head and puts the gun in the hand of the deceased. Grommack's life becomes a maddening cycle of murder when he discovers that the dead man was a special assistant to the President. When he tries to tell what he saw, a team of assassins methodically kill everyone he comes in contact with.
