The mountain pass town was never big enough to hold a man like Kane Archer. Even back then. Telluride, Colorado. It's calling him back. Or rather, his ex girlfriend is. She doesn't understand that he has bigger, bloodier, more dangerous things on his plate. Kane is the right hand man of New York City's most ruthless mobster, and he's versed in more than just the art of torture and death. Kane returns to Telluride to seal the lid on his past for good. The secrets waiting for him there threaten to destroy everything he's worked for. His future is beginning to look a hell of a lot like his past, and Kane has a choice to make. Will he stay with the only woman who has ever loved him for the monster he is? Or will he run just like he did all those years ago?

A philosophical work that addresses the validity of the question: What is it for the human being to be an animal, and for this animal to be a spirit? Braine argues that the perspectives of materialism and dualism are different casts of the same flawed mold and offers a holistic alternative. Braine further argues that perception is inseparable from behavior and that the human propensity to produce language separates us from other animals. Culminating in a discussion of the meaning of death, this is rich and passionate philosophical argument for the human being as animal and soul.
