Description:
Richard Adams loves his job -- or maybe he just wants to ignore everything that's going on outside of it. As the world rapidly turns into a plague-filled charnel house, Richard keeps on running his store as though nothing has changed. Even after he closes down for the last time, he can't quite bring himself to believe that everything has changed.
