It used to be the dust and noise.
The workers coming and going like ants to a picnic.
Now it's personal.
Everyone calls him Pap for reasons he can't remember. The people who matter are all gone now. His only neighbor is the factory. The beast that manufactures furniture and dust. So much dust. Dust that covered his wife as she lay dying and everything since. It covers his house inside and out, and his front porch swing. The grass and trees for as far as the eye can see. It even covers Rosemary.
He talks to Rosemary. People say he's eccentric. Or outright crazy.
He hasn't broken the law that anyone can prove, but he's bruised it and left it with whelps. That's about to change though. The stakes are about to be raised. The powerful Davis Khane is tired of flat tires on his trucks and nails in his parking lot. He's tired of the broken machines. He's tired of the man everyone calls Pap and he means to set him straight.
Instead he sets him off.
You'll love Norton Road because everyone loves an underdog. Especially one who's a little off his nut.
Get it now.
