I Am Your Wastrel

Barry Kegley, a college American History and English instructor, returns from more than twenty years of teaching in East Asia to his home in South Central Virginia. Kegley is mentally fatigued and angered by the effects of so-called global education in the 21st Century. While teaching abroad, during his between-semester breaks he witnesses his family go from a middle-class comfortable lifestyle to one of struggle and strife. His father passes away, the severity of his illness affected in part due to health care and pension benefits from his father's city-government job being substantially reduced a few years before his retirement. Barry feels victimized and powerless to right the wrongs of government, corporate, and higher education institutions and individuals by working within the system. So, he takes matters into his own hands. A little more than a year after his return, Kegley's killing spree begins.
