Making a score and settling one at the same time is a rare opportunity, enough to bring Nolan out of criminal retirement ... but he didn't count on the hillbillies or the skyjacker ...

Nolan is a pro, a veteran of mob vendettas and decades of high-tension heists. All he wants in his advancing middle age is his slice of the American pie—a way to make capitalism pay without having to drag guns into it.
