✦ Synopsis

He is the most dangerous man alive. He only wants to live in peace with his family, and forget the war that nearly killed him. Itś not going to happen. "Bob the Nailer," a heroic but flawed Vietnam War veteran is forced twice to use his skills as a master sniper to defend his life and his honor. He must face his deadliest foe from Vietnam - and his own demons - to save his wife and daughter. During the latter days of the Vietnam War, deep in-country, a young idealistic Marine named Donny Fenn was cut down by a sniperś bullet as he set out on patrol with Swagger, who himself received a grievous wound. Years later Swagger married Donnyś widow, Julie, and together they raise their daughter, Nikki, on a ranch in the isolated Sawtooth Mountains in Idaho. Although he struggles with the painful legacy of Vietnam, Swaggerś greatest wish - to leave his violent past behind and live quietly with his family - seems to have come true. Then one idyllic day, a man, a woman, and a girl set out from the ranch on horseback. High on a ridge above a mountain pass, a thousand yards distant, a calm, cold-eyed shooter, one of the worldś greatest marksmen, peers through a telescopic sight at the three approaching figures. Out of his tortured past, a mortal enemy has once again found Bob the Nailer.
