Man With Gun by Tadg Farrington

An unlikely hero. An impossible friendship. A second chance. Snacks. Garry is one of the invisible people who makes the world work. Someone you don’t notice until they aren’t there. He’s happy enough, but it’s fair to say that his life hasn’t turned out the way he expected. The dead-end job he got at the superstore when he was a student has somehow become his career. One night, he is followed home from work. Soon after he goes missing. The day he doesn’t show up, the superstore gradually goes to pieces. An expanding spiral of chaos that gridlocks just enough of the surrounding streets to make the local news. But the journey Garry is on has implications far beyond the small patch of Scotland where he has lived his whole life. Garry has been given the chance to do something extraordinary. A chance to change the world and become the man he always wanted to be.
