AxMan Flyn is desperate to make his mark.<\/p>\n
A fading British rock-star, he grabs a chance to front a high-profile charity concert in the Caribbean and do some good in the world. But hardly has he arrived than he stumbles in on the assassination of the island\u2019s president in a coup. And, to his horror, the new gangster-president frames him as the killer.<\/p>\n
AxMan has to go on the run, chased by a police force which is determined to stop him revealing the truth.<\/p>\n
A real softie, despite a tough stage image, now he\u2019s forced to come out of his shell and fight for his life. And the only person who can help him is another gangster.<\/p>\n
