During an assignment, he and others pose as insurance fraud investigators to find a possible connection between the unexplained deaths of a number of the country's small business owners. The agents eventually discover that all of the deaths are linked to Al Gotto, a top dog drug dealer in the Mafi a who operates out of New Jersey. The agents surmise that the businessmen were killed using an unidentifiable poison.After further investigation, the DIA learns that the poison is made from a unique fruit grown on a remote island in the Pacific owned by eccentric billionaire Chester Upchurch. Will Thompson and his DIA cohorts be able to stop the indiscriminate use of the poison on American citizens?
