Paul Nash is an accountant. Having testified against the Mob bosses for whom he has laundered money, he is placed in the Witness Relocation Program. Stripped of his identity, with a false name and a false life, Paul grows restless. Unable to settle in any one place, he drifts - from rural Belgium, to smalltown New England, to the wilds of Scotland. Rootless, feckless and hopelessly alone, he cannot accept his past or conceive of a future. Tom Dury provides a surreal, blackly comic portrait of human eccentricity and fallibility.
