California news reporter Max Killebrew asked for time off to rush to his dying father's bedside in Massachusetts. Max’s bully editor Ben Dixon refused. He screamed at Max to get back to work and then threw paperwork at Max's head. Bad move. Max beat the bejesus out of Dixon, landing the editor in the hospital and Max in state prison.

Halfway through his sentence, Max is “paroled” – virtually overnight. The muscular fortysomething was remanded into the custody of philanthropist Penny Worthington, on a crusade to bring down as many bullies in the workplace as possible. It's personal.

Max’s freedom comes with a bizarre “parole” condition. Help another bully victim, young public information officer Justin Silva, win a lawsuit against his employer, ViewPoint University in San Diego, and Public Relations Director, Conway Carlsin, his bully boss.

Lose, and Max goes back behind bars. Victory seems unlikely, especially since he’s teamed with rookie attorney Cassandra Barrett. To make matters worse, they are pitted against a top-notch trial lawyer who just happens to be her former law school professor and ex-lover.

There’s more at stake. The trial’s outcome could make or break the vote on a California initiative calling for the criminalization of workplace bullying. The campaign is headed by state Senator Antonio Sanchez.

Meanwhile, Max has his own agenda. Hunt down and murder Dixon, the man he blames for preventing him from spending precious time with Dad. Max is convinced he’d lost his career, the love of his life, and five years of his freedom – all because of the bully editor.

In the end, someone will die.
