    Here begins the thrilling story of a young vigilante, though he’d never call himself such. Marvin simply has certain… needs. Needs which can only be satisfied by watching people suffer. Pedophiles annoy him, so he targets them. Don’t worry, though—Marvin’s not big on blood. He prefers the mental sort of suffering, which in many ways is all the more gruesome. Of course, sometimes things get out of hand, and blood cannot be prevented. 
    A therapist by day and a stalker and intruder by night, Marvin continues with his never-ending quest to induce and spectate emotional turmoil in strangers. It’s a game he’s played for all of his adult life, a game he loves—a game he’s good at. But as time goes on, Marvin begins to take on more victims than he can handle—dangerous victims, the likes of which he’s never encountered—and before long, he’s in way over his head.
