Opis

Hired to prosecute a routine wrongful termination lawsuit against the University of Michigan, Jake McCarthy uncovers a plot to rig the National Championship football game to be played at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena. An internet gambling syndicate based in Costa Rica uses the promise of millions of dollars and the threat of physical destruction to force the all-star quarterback of the number-one ranked Michigan Wolverines to skim points and assure a favorable point spread. With the help of a seventeen-year-old Costa Rican student, a middle-aged chemistry professor and a former FBI agent, McCarthy and his co-ed client are able to preserve the honesty of the National Championship and Michigan's all-star quarterback.
