There: My name is Harry and I am in the middle of an assignment when I am notified that my parents have been killed in a a motor accident. I am also told that the circumstances are questionable. When I arrive at their home I find that my arrival attracts interest from some undesirable characters. I try to find out what was going on in my parent's lives before their untimely deaths. It appears they received a packet from my Uncle Marty, on his death about 20 years ago. Uncle Marty had a reputation that led my parents to not open the packet they'd received from him. I know i have to open it and find out why they have been killed.

Uncle Marty had taken the contents, a deed, as a note for monies owed in a poker game. They want the deed back but it is legally Marty's and so now mine. I discover that the deed has actually been cheated out of the Maho tribe in New York. I set out to find them, to sign the deed back over to them. I also intend to find the man who ordered the killings of my family, one Marco Marcetti. Here: Norris is the landowner in a country village. He owns farms, commercial premises and residential premises in the village he lives in. But Norris isn't very nice to his tenants. One reason for that is that his father had on his death only left part of the income of the estate to Norris and made the capital parts of the estate a trust so he cant sell them for his own funds. But then Norris is attacked twice. Both times he could easily have been killed. It has a changing affect on him and for the first time since his father's death he starts to work with his younger brother Cedric to benefit the estate. Then Cedric is attacked too. Together, they try to work out who is attacking them and then take the action required to stop them.
