There's nothing like money - or the lack of it to bring out the worst in people. Frank Mallon, a car dealer running out of fiscal rope, catapults himself into serious trouble with the botched tiger kidnapping of local bank manager Desmond Rane's family, the repercussions of which rock his hometown and all the people around him.
