Plot edit

Sure, our man has a name, but he never gives it. He works from home. His neighbors are all idiots. He doesn't really "do" friends. But all that changes when a mis-delivered package arrives in his post office box bearing a horrifying secret—one that will set him on a collision course with a predator, the man's disillusioned daughter, and his own dark past.
