Opis

The accidental discovery of a long-lost nuclear artillery shell is fatefully interwoven with the life paths of several dangerous sociopaths. In its dark journey across present-day America, the shell is inevitably drawn to its ultimate destination due to the selfish desires of these unwitting pawns. A reclusive engineer on a campaign to blow up Hummer dealerships worships the shell as God. A racist redneck recruited to assassinate a black congressman wants to use it as a weapon. An ATF pencil-pusher with ADD covets it as stepping stone for his career. An aging cult leader seeks to barter it for cash, while only an ex-porn star living in constant terror knows its exact location! Their separate idealist agendas clash throughout the story with increasing savagery and mayhem, leaving only destruction and pain in their wake. Is it God directing them, or something sinister?
