Inhaltsangabe

When boyfriend Bill Wright, an FBI Agent, was caught on camera kissing a younger woman, pregnant girlfriend, Agent Monica Micovich, blew a gasket. The agent's scorn found the perfect mate. Stinging from a broken heart, she worked as if guided by Eliot Ness. Busting criminals was carried out in an emotional frenzy. The godfather's organization in Chicago, Detroit and Cleveland suffered serious damage at the work of Agent Micovich. Agent Micovich swooped in to bust up racketeering, political malfeasance, and contract cheating. Politicians with ties to mobsters in Chicago, Detroit and Cleveland scurried for cover. So determined to alleviate the pain of a broken heart, Monica staged a full court press on the godfather's illegal activity. As she closed in on sources of political corruption, the deviant politicians were forced to clam up. This harmed the godfather's ability to learn the value of sealed bids on construction projects. Her pregnancy didn't slow the feisty agent. The strong willed marshal arts trained agent accumulated department accolades. Even her supervisor, Cliff Moses, tried to slow her down. The mafia godfather, Julius Cambello, was growing restless. The problem with taming the spirited agent was worrisome. He didn't want the entire FBI agency coming down on his businesses. If he ordered a counter-attack, it must look like an accident. A limited form of revenge was the godfather's idea. An accident would slow the ambitious agent, maybe dampen her spirit. His business like instruction was to 'make her pay a price.' Agent Micovich refused to believe she could be the target of an underworld sting. Ex-boyfriend Bill Wright kept out of the way. The playboy - chauvinist decided fooling around was justified because Monica wasn't as attractive when pregnant and it wasn't his child she was carrying. In a way double deception was being played since Monica was just looking for a suitable marry a stepfather. Still, the handsome agent could have been a perfect father. Talk of a casino coming to Ohio was heating up in Columbus, Ohio. This created another problem for the godfather. He didn't want legal gambling coming to Ohio unless he had a hand in the business. Legal gambling would cut into his syndicate's profits. He needed his political friends to rule in his favor. Some political friends became increasingly alarmed when Agent Micovich started arresting colleagues. Expressing displeasure, the godfather barks, "She's still doing this. A pregnant woman is creating problems for the syndicate." The godfather had to be more forceful. Monica's child would have to be used to broker a deal. The godfather had even more on his mind. Ohio politicians appeared ready to open casino gambling. He needs to either stop the people that are building the casino or take a piece of the action. A casino builder, Palmino Franco, is in the crosshairs. He's protected, but Franco's staff can be eliminated. The festival heats up at the pro-casino rally. Agent Micovich and Agent Paula Gavalia watch as the crowd grows. Monica spies a past acquaintance. He's the estranged father of her child. The evening could become a nightmare. To complicate matters, Richard Stern is with a friend, Brenda Clark. The stage is set. When Richard Stern and Agent Monica Micovich get together, love might be in the air, however, history says trouble.
