A man tainted with death becomes a walking pall over the world of men.
Twenty-nine year old widower Keith Cremmins meets Judith, the would-be woman of his dreams, but finds that the shadow of death lingers over their nascent relationship, over the streets of the city, over the entire urban core— and perhaps even the very firmament of the cosmos itself.
