A chance meeting of a former high school best friend causes Vinnie Briggs' Sicilian vacation to fall apart even before he checks into his hotel. One friend asks for a "simple" favor, the other dies.

Vinnie knows it's a bad idea to get involved, yet he can't refuse. He's asked to link the Brooklyn mob to human trafficking in Sicilian refugee camps.

The favor begets complications. The body count grows. And on top of it all, a youthful bodybuilder seduces Vinnie's husband.

If he fails, fatal consequences will follow, and not only for him.
