Character. James Reynolds. Corporation apologist with little regard for the feelings of others.
Two animal rights activists are persuaded to help kidnap the marketing head of a pharmaceutical company lock him in a cage and make their own "fake" experiments on him unaware of the personal vendetta their accomplice has against their victim.
I am by nature totally opposed to vivisection but it was the complex structure of the story and conflicting relationships between kidnapper and victim that drew me to this story.
Despite being a supporting role to the main story I was allowed to develop a seperate more subtle sub-plot to the character of James that offered a counter-balance to the harshness of the main thread.
