Jack Palms starred in one hit Hollywood action flick. Now everyone thinks he’s still that guy. If he tries to lead the life, will he get burned? Or will he find out he can still act the part?
An old friend from LA calls with a proposition—to show some Czech high rollers a VIP time—and Jack goes in for the payday. When his friend is murdered, Jack dives straight into the heart of San Francisco’s drug and prostitution underbelly to follow the trail of clues.
Will he find his friend’s killer and broker the VIP experience his fans want? Does Maxine, the beautiful bartender who falls for him, still work for her shady boss? AND can Jack run this game through to its end, or will it be his final screen test before that big casting call in the sky?
