Tragedy often happens, unnoticed and unexplained, within seemingly ordinary city life. Add a day of frustrations to a lifetime of guilt and so much might be lost in one despairing act. But there are also people like Jed Hill, a university student with a burden to change the world, although he is not sure what that might mean. Yet his ill-conceived attempts at making a difference move towards an unexpected encounter that will change more than one life. Nemesis Train is a web of characters and events in which ordinary moments can lead to dramatically different possibilities.
