he discovers Zani’s landlord, Kasper Peres, with a fatal slug in his chest. Then
Zani vanishes and with her Frank’s alibi when the police decide to charge him
for Peres’ murder.
So, Frank takes it on the lam with his old bounty hunter pal Gerald Peyton to
get some answers real fast. They run up against more dead bodies, and a ruthless
gang of bank robbers desperate to find a hidden cache of money. Catastrophic
changes rock Frank’s world before he can reach any sort of a resolution.
