CHAPTER ONE

The story of an endless and conflicted love between a young man and woman. They play with fire and nearly lose their lives doing it.

The story of one of the largest and most audacious gasoline tax evasion scams in Canadian and U.S. history.

The perpetrator, Jim Servito, used The Peace Bridge, spanning The Niagara River, to facilitate his crime, and his private Cessna to transport the enormous fruits of the theft to the "safety" of a Cayman Island bank.

Cynical and remorselessly ruthless, Servito possesses a brilliant criminal mind, has enormous contempt for the law, police, governments, and the system in which they function. He assumes rules are for fools, and takes sadistic pleasure in breaking them.
