Jack is an author, a children's author at that, although this has never really been an ambition of his he just sort of fell into it. He decides to take the leap into becoming a crime author instead in an attempt to move slightly further away from his infantile profession and really try and make something of himself. The problem with this however is that Jack, to be minimize his personality, is a sensitive kind of guy. So when he becomes entombed by his research into Victorian serial killers he starts to turn into what can only be described as a paranoid wreck, persecuted by the irrational fear of being murdered.
When his long-suffering agent throws Jack a lifeline and a mysterious Hollywood executive takes a sudden and unfathomable interest in his script, what should be his big break rapidly turns into his big breakdown, even bigger than the one he was experiencing before the lifeline was thrown in the first place. As Jack is forced to confront his worst demons; among them his love life, his laundry and the origin of all fear - something that unsurprisingly stretches all the way back to his wretched childhood.
