Eclectic Libbyland

Walton Friendly can seem like any number of things; from an obsessive-compulsive Mormon who stalks an astonishing woman named Libby Hendricks, to an artist vanquished from the core of his beliefs. He wanders through a dreamscape of emotions, and enlists the most unlikely of helpers: Crazy Bill Capresci, self-proclaimed kingpin of the subway derelicts. Walton thinks he deserted the United States Army. Bill has deserted people, preferring the regularity of trains to the disparity of human kindness. They agree to unite in the quest for Libby, for it will surely be their last attempt to find some redeeming element in a world which has swiftly abandoned them. Serving as a trump to this situation is the possibility that Walton Friendly may be the deposed President of the United States, made to disappear in an elaborate and conjoining plot between the CIA, FBI, NSA, Pentagon, and Joint Chiefs. He had radical ideas which were beginning to shake the infrastructure of the old power system. Could Libby be nothing more than a willing, paid participant in the reprogramming of a revolutionary political mind who is still too potentially useful to kill? Or is Libby the true heart and source of the project?
