Can one man take on a big business? With his stunning girlfriend, Charlotte (Allison Doody, Major League II), Taffin sets out to do just that.

Countering brawn with brain in a campaign of escalating violence, Taffin trackes down the ruthless financier behind the scheme for a confrontation from which there can only be one survivor.
