William “Rooster” Brown is new in town. No family. No money. No prospects. And his first order of business is to kill the waitress who spurned his awkward advances. But what starts out as the worst decision of his life leads to the best thing that ever happens to him. Unexpectedly his plan is interrupted by two thieves who attempt to assault a young woman during the course of a robbery. Rooster comes to the girl’s rescue and shoots her attackers dead, launching him into the unexpected role of town hero. The girl’s grateful father, a wealthy local businessman, stands up for Rooster and sets him on a path that leads to a life he never imagined possible. But not everyone is a fan. Sheriff Bill Hickey is suspicious from the start, when he notices the carved notches on the gun that belonged to Rooster’s grandfather. Rooster himself carries the guilt of his true intentions on that dark night, and is haunted by a family legacy that includes his criminal grandfather, and his father who chose a different path in life as a preacher. One Lucky Fool tells the winding tale of a young man struggling under the weight of his family history as he tries to forge a new way for himself. With some fingers pointing toward his future and others toward his past, can Rooster figure out where to plant his feet today?
