What is A Slightly Tainted Hero about?

Dave Lockwood is an accountant. Hes also just turned sixty and hes feeling oldboth in body and mind. And then theres Irene Blanchard, his office manager. Shes about twenty years younger than Dave, which is about the age his mind seems to think he is, as it valiantly labours to adjust to a maturing body. Which is why, one evening as he escorts Irene down to the parking lot below one of Edmontons down-town sky scrapers he unwisely confronts a mugger, whom he quickly discovers is armed. Blind panic follows as shots ring out, and Dave becomes an overnight hero; in fact, hes shocked to find that hes a successful, wounded, nationally known hero. But instant fame has its drawbacks as Daves past sins slowly emerge from behind a long closed closet door. Louise, his wife of thirty six years, is not pleased. Neither, it seems, is anyone else as the fallout spreads: his partners at work, the police, the muggers family, and even Dave himself. A tainted hero takes an often humorous, sometimes thoughtful look at the bittersweet irony when the good things in life turn out, as they often do, to be Slightly Tainted. Or, as Dave likes to put it: Every silver lining has a cloud! After nearly forty yea
