When a young woman named Michelle goes missing, Carlos “Chuck” McCrary is called upon by an old friend, South Florida’s legendary restaurateur, millionaire Hank Hickham, Michelle’s grandfather. Fortunately, Chuck soon finds Michelle alive and well, with her boyfriend, James Ponder, a graduate student obsessed with global warming protests.
Soon after, Michelle wakes Chuck with a 4:30 a.m. phone call, desperate for help. Ponder has involved her in an environmental terrorist attack that murdered two people. Now Michelle faces a lifetime in prison unless Chuck can find her a way out. Michelle only wanted to protect the earth when she got involved with a campus environmental club. Instead, she was sucked in with an unhealthy gang led by Ponder whose secret agenda has yielded him millions of dollars from government corruption. Michelle is swept up in a nightmare of political corruption and organized crime.
Chuck uncovers a conspiracy involving arson, murder, and the Chicago mafia. A mysterious millionaire has masterminded a string of mega-million-dollar stock market scams that reach back for five years. The mastermind intends to cut his losses by murdering anyone who can lead the cops back to him. That includes Michelle, Chuck, and the corrupt professor, who becomes Chuck’s unwilling ally.
