PAYBACK is the taut, fast moving story of a man's desperate journey
to find peace of mind. A man who is the product of a family barely
eking out a living in the country of Albania during World War II. A
country that has just been invaded by the Italian army under the
leadership of the Fascist Dictator Benito Mussolini. His family has
been forced to provide all of the wool yielded by their small flock
of sheep to the Italian Army, receiving very little stipend in
return. The uncertainty of war results in an increasing bitterness
and hostility in this young man, who is beginning to display
exceptional inner turmoil amongst his family. Ultimately, this
young man's quest for a better life begins quite unexpectedly one
day, when he seizes upon a dangerous opportunity. This opportunity
propels him into a survival mode that results in a trail of
desperation through Albania, Turkey, across the Atlantic, and
finally to a small town in Maine. His troubled mind is briefly
calmed when he meets and marries a young woman who bears him a
son...a son soon abandoned and forgotten. Hate and vengeance emerge
from the turn of events which lasts for decades and is finally
complicated by a series of murders in the small town of Bridgeway,
Maine.
