The call to Mack Bolan is urgent, almost frantic. Rosario Blancanales's kid sister, Toni, has been raped and beaten - but at least she is still alive, unlike the five other victims whose throats were slashed by the Minneapolis maniac.

In a raging search-and-destroy assault, Mack Bolan makes his presence felt throughout the Twin Cities, from the lowest mob hangouts to the police department and into the City Hall itself. A psychopathic killer is being protected by some powerful force.

For Mack Bolan there will be no intermissions, no pardons, no excuses: he will be fighting for one of his closest friends. He is once again judge, jury... and Executioner.
