Robert ¿Squirrelly¿ Stocken, 28 year old Florida tree-trimmer, gets his wish for a nice little inside job. He marries well and is set-up as a fall guy by his mother in law, board chair, of the troubled Phosphate Savings Bank. An outrageous bonus depends on Robert¿s approval of full disbursement on a partially completed high-rise bed and breakfast. His refusal leads to a brutal financial collapse and riot. Robert¿s encounter with a hairy-legged woman when he was ten years old nearly gets him killed 18 years later. Other ¿issue characters¿ contribute to this satirical account of the ¿yard guy¿s¿ adventure in greed and incompetence.
