Publisher's Synopsis
Jim Lima is a young man who has been sent down the seemingly wrong path in life. Rather than follow his dreams of being a professional pianist he chooses to follow in his father's footsteps in construction. In his quest for freedom from his family's financial ties he attempts to develop a piece of land using his house as collateral. His narrow-mindedness gets him deeply indebted to the Bank, which is trying to foreclose on the loan. What Jim doesn't realize is that local corruption is widespread. His project is intentionally being held back by a government official with undiscovered conflicts of interest. Add in the official's connection to organized crime and a murder/missing persons scheme and Jim is in deep trouble without even knowing it.
