The South Side Tour Guide - Somerset Shelter

Andrew Wingal's life has become a farce. Unemployed for more than a year, he starts giving tours into the seedy parts of Chicago to tourists eager to witness real-life crime. The local media, politicians, the police department, and belligerent gang members don't like him. When Andy's job gets him into deeper trouble, his hotheaded boyfriend insists he flee town for a few weeks until things simmer down. With nowhere else to go, Andy heads for eastern Iowa, where his former brother-in-law, Harden Krane, lives on an idyllic farm with his two school-age children, Mason and Olivia. Harden has his own specters haunting him. Left with his young daughter and son to raise on his own, he struggles to work full time and build a normal life for them. Yet when Andy shows up after a three-year absence, he hopes that the family's hardships might ease up, if only temporarily. But during Andy's stay, a common menace from Harden and Andy's past appears unexpectedly-and Harden and Andy find solace in each other in a way neither imagined possible.
