From the writer of the darkly comedic film Falling Down comes the novel Pro Bono, the story of Adrien, a professional assassin and amateur chef who, in order to overcome a career-crippling crisis of conscience, volunteers to kill a few deserving souls free of charge. The client, Charles, formerly a take-life-by-the-balls thrill-seeker, is now a wheelchair-bound quadriplegic determined to take revenge against the three men he holds responsible for making him the man he is today.

From the writer of the darkly comedic film Falling Down comes the novel Pro Bono, the story of Adrien, a professional assassin and amateur chef who, in order to overcome a career-crippling crisis of conscience, volunteers to kill a few deserving souls free of charge. The client, Charles, formerly a take-life-by-the-balls thrill-seeker, is now a wheelchair-bound quadriplegic determined to take revenge against the three men he holds responsible for making him the man he is today. The targets: The driver of the Hummer who, while texting, crashed head-on into Charles' hybrid; the doctor who failed to notice the hairline fracture in his vertebrae during a rushed post-accident exam, and the insurance company executive who found the loophole to deny his claim. The unlikely pair pursue their quarry in a custom Winnebago along with Jeanette, a nurse-practitioner with a past, Spike, an intellectually challenged, muscle-bound driver, and a hunting dog that Adrien is re-training as a service animal - a canine metaphor for the master who is himself questioning his purpose in life. Sharing some comedically-violent DNA with Mr. Smith's iconic film, which starred Michael Douglas as an unemployed defense worker on a one-man rampage against the multi-cultural annoyances of 1990's Los Angeles, Pro Bono is as outrageously funny as it is soulfully thought-provoking.
