Rod Gentry is known as a 'buyer of last resort'. When nobody else can solve the problems of a real estate deal, they come to him. Now he has a new and personal mission. He'll replace the dilapidated oceanfront apartment house left him by his father and build one of those snazzy new condominium buildings. But there is a problem. Rod is broke. But that never stopped any real estate man worth his salt. He intends to parlay a thousand dollars and two credit cards into the half million he needs to build his condominium. But Rod hasn't reckoned with a duplicitous fellow Realtor and a crooked buyer, nor could he have anticipated his wife's abduction and attempted murder by her ex-husband.
