For someone who's always managed to keep one step ahead of trouble - and the law - Teddy's biggest concern now is to stay alive and find out who set him up. To do so, he'll have to outlast and outwit a mobster with a hair-trigger temper, an assistant U.S. attorney suffering from a Napoleon complex, and two international arms dealers with impressive and lethal resumes. It seems they all have a keen interest in Mr. Scarlotti's disappearance. And Teddy's only ally is the waitress he's quickly falling in love with.
