Sinopsis

Vince's real name is Marty Hagen, a career criminal from New Jersey, given a new identity and a job working in a donut shop in a sleepy Northwest city by the Witness Protection Program. Since he testified against the hoods he used to run with, his rights have been restored - including his right to vote, something he's never done. For Vince - who has fallen in love with a beautiful and politically engaged customer in the shop - voting in the Presidential election becomes the most important thing in his life. America is at a point of change (who is this Ronald Regan?) and Vince begins to feel perhaps even a guy like him can change. Perhaps he can move beyond the credit-card scam he still operates, and start to contribute to society.But while Vince is busy remaking himself, his past arrives in town in the form of a contract killer that he recognises from his old life. Has he come to kill Vince? Or was he hired by local gangsters, trying to muscle him out of his rackets?With three days left until the election, Vince must duck crooks, cops and an implacable killer, as he tries to figure out a way to save himself, and his dreams.
