Entreated by his goddaughter to help pay off a blackmailer who videotaped her bachelorette party and then threatened to expose her debauchery, Doc Ford reluctantly agrees and then finds himself in danger when the extortionist releases the tape anyway.
It went against all of Ford's instincts. When his goddaughter, Shay, called, he assumed it was with details of her imminent wedding, but the news was anything but cheerful. She and her bridesmaids had thrown a pretty wild bachelorette party, it seemed, on St. Arc in the Windward Islands - and someone had secretly videotaped it. Now that person was threatening to blow up her future unless she came across with enough money. But don't worry, Doc, she said, she'd negotiated it down. All she needed him to do was make the exchange. Please?
Ford knew it was a mistake - a mistake to trust the extortionist, a mistake for her not to tell her fiance - but he agreed. Now one of the bridesmaids is near death. The blackmailer grabbed the money and threatened to release the tape on the Internet anyway. The panicked bridesmaid took an overdose of pills and alcohol.
Fueled by guilt and an overpowering rage, Ford swears to destroy the person responsible, but the blackmailer has other ideas. An agent of corruption like no one they have ever met, the black widow is just getting started.
