Armistice Suicide

In the mid-spring of 1975, twenty-two year old Dice was about to avenge his brother's murder. But his landlord tells him he has thirty days to move out of his place due to renovations. He also tells him he will be doubling his rent. Dice's priority now changes. With his friend Spike, the two decide to become murderers-for hire, and choose that as a career path, in and around the housing projects they grew up in. They fancy themselves as bounty hunters, ridding the world of people who deserve it.
