Slip and fall

ADVENTURE / THRILLER. Robert Principe thought it would be a one-time deal. When he graduated from law school, Rob believed his future was set - he was part of the professional world now, far from his impoverished upbringing. But faced with a struggling firm, a pregnant wife, and a sister in trouble, Rob realises the white-collar world isn't as easy as he thought. He needs money...fast. Desperate, he approaches his wiseguy cousin Jackie with an insurance scheme - a way for the Mob to collect from guys who owe but can't pay and a chance for Robert to use his law degree to make a few quick bucks when he needs it most. The scheme works well - too well. The money flows, the violence escalates, and Rob soon learns that getting out of a deal with the Mafia isn't exactly easy...especially when the FBI is onto you. Rob Principe is a good man. But he's made a seriously bad decision.
