Buster "Rant" Casey was a high school rebel who escaped his small town, became the leader of an urban demolition derby, and may have unleashed a silent plague of rabies. After his spectacular highway death, Rant's friends and enemies gather to piece together the truth about his short, violent life. Their collected anecdotes reveal a man who was either a serial killer or the most efficient one of our time.
