If youâ€™re wanted for murder, the last thing you should do is smoke a joint, eat a taco, and alienate potential alibis. Then again, Ethan isnâ€™t a very good murder suspect.,Maybe itâ€™s just been a lousy week for him. There are layoffs at the office, poorly written death threats, and a vapid, but alluring coworker sending Ethan mixed signals. The f-buddy who loves to loathe him doesnâ€™t understand that itâ€™s over, and his philosophizing best friend is pretty sure that Ethanâ€™s problem is merely the dreary momentum of the hipster ethos. Or it could be that Ethanâ€™s pot dealer is out of baggies once again.,But the cop whoâ€™s after him doesnâ€™t buy any of that bullshit. Despite being lazy and crooked, Boyd is damn good at his job. Heâ€™s certain Ethan murdered his exâ€”The Girl Who Got Awayâ€”along with her nobody of a boyfriend. And the more Boyd hounds him for a confession, the more Ethan comes to see the murders as his way out of the existential crisis consuming him.
