There isn't much about Skip's life that's going the way he imagined it should at his age. In fact, he isn't who he thought he would be at all. His job as a security systems salesman is less than inspiring and contains no hope of bettering his future, his economy apartment leaves much to be desired and doesn't even have a view, and his vehicle is anything but a Cadillac. The only thing in his life that gives him any real joy is the woman he loves, albeit an unrequited love, and his best friend James. So when James proffers another one of his harebrained, get-rich-quick ideas, Skip is faithfully along for the ride. After all, what does he have to lose?

Crazy adventures are nothing new in Skip's life -- having James as a best friend almost makes it a guarantee, but becoming involved in a murder...that's not something Skip and James could have ever imagined. But when the duo becomes determined to find their fortune as movers, their lives are suddenly turned upside down. Late-night stakeouts, visits from thugs whose only mission in life is to cause bodily harm, staring down the barrel of a gun, car chases, getting shot at, buildings being blown up... Who would have thought that finding a severed appendage in a box of mail they'd been hired to move would stir up such a hornets' nest of trouble?

It's not until lives are hanging in the balance that Skip begins to realize that there are things in his life that are worth fighting for and that he's the only person who can exact a positive direction for his future. There's nothing like a loaded gun in your face to help you make those hard life choices and show that your life really does have STUFF TO DIE FOR.
