About this listen

Elmer Gilhooley has everything a guy could want. At just over thirty he’s retired and living off an ill-gotten windfall that he came into at his last job as a bounty hunter. He has a nice little house, a huge gun collection and plenty of time on his hands to enjoy both. His only problem is utter boredom and a longing for the sense of purpose and excitement that he used to know.

When Elmer’s former boss lands him a new job to break up the monotony things get real interesting again, real quick. In no time at all he lands himself in a knee-deep mess of crooked officials. A new romantic entanglement further complicates matters: getting framed, getting even and getting out alive are all things Elmer has a lot of experience with but none of that has prepared him for the rigors of being a boyfriend.

As his troubles multiply Elmer soon discovers that being extraordinary in some respects means that it is very hard to be ordinary in everyday life.
