James Ransom is seventy-four, and a far cry from the tough young boxer he remembers from the eighties.
Sick of growing increasingly powerless and reliant on others in his old age, James reconnects with a former trainer and hatches a possibly-fatal plan to regain the control he believes he's lost. But is he in over his head? James will quickly learn whether or not he lives up to the towering identity he's spent four decades constructing for himself.
"It’s an utterly poignant tale of regret, longing, and maintaining control before you’re counted out for good."—AIPT
