When a law student accidentally kills the son of a mob boss in a fight, he finds himself relentlessly pursued by the mob and the police. While conveying a Porsche from Boston to Atlantic City, engine trouble stalls student Charlie. Mistaken as rich, he's invited to a big poker game--and wins big time. However, Denny Halloran, son of a mighty mobster, is a bad loser and starts a fight; but he's also a bad fighter, falls on his head, and dies. Now Charlie's in trouble; after he flees, Halloran's father puts a reward on his head. Even the police won't help him against the mighty man, so Charlie must run for his life. —Tom Zoerner <Tom.Zoerner@informatik.uni-erlangen.de> Boston law student and part-time mechanic Charlie Farrow is asked by his boss to deliver a new Porsche from Boston to Atlantic City for a client. Close to Atlantic City, the Porsche breaks down. While Charlie waits for the car to be repaired, a cab driver mistakes Charlie for an Atlantic City high roller and takes him to a casino that has a barroom and a kitchen, so Charlie can get something to eat. At the casino, Charlie earns the wrath of Denny Halloran, who takes exception when Charlie beats him at poker. In the ensuing fight, Denny trips, hits his head on the sharp corner of the counter, and dies. Denny was the son of crime boss Matt Halloran: the owner of the casino, the police force, and the town. Wrongfully accused of murdering Denny, Charlie finds himself on the run from both the cops and Matt's henchmen, and the bodies start piling up. Can Charlie survive Matt's wrath and convince the cops of his innocence? —Todd Baldridge In Boston, the law student and lucky poker player Charlie Farrow works in a garage and is hired by his boss to deliver a Porsche in Atlantic City. The car has an injection problem on the highway, and while waiting the repair, Charlie asks the cab driver to take him to a restaurant. The guy sees the fancy car and the destination, Atlantic City, and wrongly decides to take Charlie to a local casino, believing he is a millionaire. Charlie keeps winning and the loser, Denny Halloran, tries to hit Charlie, but accidentally stumbles, hits his head on a counter, and dies. His father, the powerful mobster Matt Halloran, puts a reward on Charlie, and the gangsters and dirty cops chase him through the night. With support from Karen Landers, Charlie runs for his life. —Claudio Carvalho, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
