Jerome Burnel un tempo era stato un eroe. Molte persone, destinate a morire in circostanze tragiche e violente, devono a lui il fatto di essere ancora vive. Ma aver aiutato quella gente ha significato per Jerome la perdizione, la condanna a una vita di privazioni e umiliazioni, dolore e sofferenza. Ora, giunto al crepuscolo della propria esistenza, braccato da chi ne desidera la fine, Jerome racconta la sua storia al detective Charlie Parker.
