PHOENIX
On October 17, 1971, Ryder Kennedy, front men for the band "FREIGHT TRAIN" finishes singing the band's last encore, then he drops his microphone on the stage and walks off, never to be seen again. No one, not even Ryder's brother Clutch, the band's lead guitarist, knows where he went or why. Ryder has simply disappeared.

It is now the summer of 1991. Ryder has secretly relocated to one of the fringe locations on the East Coast, on the Cape Cod island of Nantucket. Over the course of the past twenty years Ryder has been able to establish a working relationship with other island residents; he doesn't bother them and they don't bother him. SS can do that for a person.

On day, while relaxing on his private ocean beach, Ryder meets a woman who will change his life forever. These changes will come at a hefty price. During the same time that Ryder has been in hiding from the public, Jason Blackwood has been spending time in a federal prison. Jason's brother Curt Blackwood was also a former member of "FREIGHT TRAIN" until his own personal demons and an uncontrolled obsession led him to lose his life. Over two decades Jason has thought about his brother's death and who he feels was responsible for it...Ryder Kennedy. Now Jason has been released after doing his full sentence and he is determined to seek revenge. The clock is now ticking for Ryder Kennedy. Tick....tock....
