Mystery | Thriller

Jack Eisley is sitting in an airport bar in Philadelphia, chatting up a pretty young blonde. Sure, Jack has a wife and daughter, but this is just a little harmless flirting. Harmless, that is, until the blonde leans forward and says: "I poisoned your drink."

She tells Jack that unless she can keep someone within 10- feet of her at all times, she'll die. And if he wants the antidote, he'll have to take her back to his hotel room, and promise to stay by her side.

Jack thinks: psy-cho. But as the violent night wears on, and he encounters a relentless assassin, a double-crossing spook, an eccentric pair of crime scene cleaners, a violent waitress and shady cab drivers...he begins to believe her.
