Matt Seattle, a Sarasota stockbroker, befriends an older stock enthusiast, Joe Jesso. During one of their weekly Wednesday morning sessions, Joe announces he s gotten married. A week later, Joe dies.
Believing Joe may have been the victim of a black widow, Matt hires an investigator to look into Joe s death. The investigator finds old Joe wasn t so innocent; he embezzled money from a drug cartel. Suddenly, Matt finds himself battling Joe s widow and her shyster lawyer who want his money, The National Association of Security Dealers who wants his broker s license, and, oh yes, the cartel who wants his life. It s enough to turn any bull into a bear.
