The Walkaway
Noir master Scott Phillips's The Walkaway explores the far-reaching consequences of the deception and violence of its predecessor, The Ice Harvest.Summer 1989: Retired cop Gunther Fahnstiel walks out of the dementia ward of a Wichita nursing home to track down the pile of cash he stashed away a decade ago. As Gunther's memories unravel, The money isn't exactly his; on Christmas of 1979, Gunther and his wife accidentally ran over a stranger with their RV and found the stacks of bills in his bag, along with plane tickets, a .22-caliber pistol, and a bottle of Johnnie Walker.As Gunther evades his well-meaning pursuers--family, old friends and the law--his thoughts keep returning to 1952, when he was moonlighting as the muscle for a sex ring operating out of an aircraft plant and protecting its ringleader from her estranged psychopath of a husband.
