One of the only good stories in the short story collection"Nightmares and Dreamscapes." I was intrigued by seeing the ending of the movie version of this.
A teacher's wife is blown apart because she saw a gangster kill someone. Her husband loved her (aw, boo-hoo) and can't sleep until he has avenged his wife's death.

The strength of one mans resolve is beautifully told in this tale of ultimate revenge.

When a goods man wife is killed because she knows too much, he makes it his mission to take out the powerful and seemingly untouchable man that is behind her death. His only shot at success is when "Dolan" is being driven across the country in his cadillac and it is on the road, laying the most incredible trap, that he makes his move. The personal pain and struggle our protagonist must endure in order to give his plan the best chance of success is gruelling and torturous....but well worth it.
