Caught in a rip tide while on holiday with his girlfriend, Will has the fortunate misfortune of having his life saved by Roland, a man who turns out to be his worst nightmare. Falling into a guilty compact with his rescuer, Will is consumed by how irritating and compelling he finds Roland. At the cost of everything and everyone else in his life, Will is hellbent on learning what makes someone not just a prick, but The Prick.
