Beskrivelse

What does a $300,000 poker debt, a desperate man, a rape victim and five deaths all have in common? One man - Alex Braeden. After a seemingly happy marriage was pushed to the brink of disaster by the birth of a son, Alex didn't spend much time at home. At Lucky's, his favorite bar, he found pleasure and company with high stakes poker, booze and women. After being tricked into a poker game with the best player around, Raymond Solis, his life would never be the same. When the game ended he owed Solis more money than he could ever hope to repay. This one game is the turning point for Alex, forcing him to do things he never knew he was capable of doing. Solis' henchman pounding his face sent him a very clear message, either pay off the debt or die. Scared of what would happen if he didn't come up with the money and fast, Alex came up with a plan to buy life insurance for his wife and son then cash them in ASAP. The plan was working wonderfully and Alex was feeling good about killing his family and paying off Solis until he saw he was being watched. Skye Wilson, how much did she see? Did she see the arm fall out of the bag? She will have to be dealt with. When two detectives came knocking at his door, Alex knew he was getting busted for murder and tried to play it cool. Sweating bullets all the way to the police station, Alex was enraged even more when they questioned him about the rape of Connie Anderson. He claimed to know nothing about that. As the days go by Alex strays more and more from his original plan and with a nosey neighbor, a suspicious insurance agent and two detectives snooping around, he is in dire straits. The fear of getting caught turns into desperation and acts like a tightening noose around his neck.
