Wimbledon
The top of the world. That's what Wimbledon is for tennis pros and their fanatical followers. It draws the rich, the beautiful, the famous, the thrill-seekers, and high-rollers from the world over--and the smart money has picked McLaren to win it. James McLaren--the world's number one player, on and off the field.
But USSR's Aysop Chekow thinks otherwise, and so does a Russian conglomerate who will stop at nothing to assure the victory that will launch them into the multi-million dollar sporting goods market--including blackmail, drugs, sexual torture, and murder. They have unleashed Joseph, an ex-KGB operative programmed with one ultimate objective: Kill McLaren.
Now, while the world's eyes watch the sweating bodies, and the heated action on the court, a cold, dark plot unfolds. It will come down to this final confrontation in the brutal tension of a great contest, in the last agonizing moments of the first life or death match ever held at... WIMBLEDON.
