Overview

"It's a hard thing to accept that someone wants you dead. It forces you to decide if you have anything worth living for. Long-time radio ""morning man"" Lee Garrett is bottoming out. The career he loved has turned sour, leaving behind a dwindling audience and the wreckage of his marriage. When he finds a death threat on his control console, he shrugs it off as a sick prank--until a series of minor harassments turns into a set of undeniable attempts on his life. The suspects are many--he's made enemies--and the police are strangely uncooperative. But when the deadliest assault yet claims an innocent victim, Garrett knows he has no choice--he has to find his persecutors and force a confrontation. The extraordinary outcome will test the limits of an ordinary man."
