Millionaire businessman Charlie Ravich is a survivor whose brutal experience as a POW in Vietnam has more than prepared him for the cut-throat world of global commerce. Now in his late fifties, with his family dying out, Charlie is about to make his greatest speculation yet.
Enter Christina, a voluptuous Ivy League dropout whose affair with Rick Bocca, a member of a big-time truck-theft ring run by mobster Tony V, landed her in prison. After four years in seclusion, she is mysteriously released by the Manhattan DA's office. Warned that Christina is being set up by Tony V, Rick begins a despearate search for Christina, who has lied her way into Charlie's high-flying world. But as her past catches up with her, and Rick's catches up with him, a harrowing chain of betrayals is set in motion that leaves only one person with any hope of a future.
