He¿d become a big oil tycoon, generous to his family and friends and always willing to help an old pal¿but that¿s what got him into trouble. So when he innocently told a former business acquaintance he¿d see if he could cut him in for a small slice of a big deal, he soon found himself in the clutches of a mobster who wouldn¿t take no for an answer. And before long, Hugh DeWitt was faced with an endless nightmare of threats and physical violence against himself, his family, and his closest associates.
