Robert "Bobber" Mulligan walked into a convenience store looking for doughnuts and forgot to duck when the shooting started. Now his nerves are frayed by post-traumatic stress and a recurring vision of St. Peter shunning him at Heaven's pearly gate.

All he wants is to live a quiet life, but his simple plan is shattered by escalating neighborhood crime. With police response times too slow to catch the criminals, neighbors are at a loss how to prevent more trouble. Only Mulligan, caught in the crossfire between good guys and bad guys during the robbery, realizes he may not only have to fight for his quiet life, he may have to kill for it.
