Synopsis

Georgina Powers is not happy when Charlie East turns up for their wild weekend in LA on the plane home. He had a good excuse—a million dollars in computer chips won at an all-night poker game. Still, Georgina plans revenge and sells Charlie's story to the tabloids. That's when the trouble starts. You don't mess with the Japanese mafia, the Colombian drugs cartels, or a gun-happy international computer dealer. But they mess with her because they think she has the chips—and they want them back. Should she stay or run? Either way, will she live to write the scoop of the century?
