Deciding to acquire life changing riches by criminal means is a bold, if not reckless, statement of intent. It will require overturning the ordinary citizen's innate morality and values. Herein is the story of just such a walk on the wild side; where unique opportunities lead to success and that high life. However, it doesn't last, for blackmailers emerge, threatening to reveal the past. Countering this menace slowly descends into a never ending spiral of mind games, violence and death. It is a cautionary tale for the uninitiated, so beware! Charles Glover
