He is also the person responsible for the death of Carmen Graybeal's mother and incarceration of her father. Knowing this, Carmen is out for revenge, but first she must employ the assistance of her new friend, Donald Schlieman, a naive real estate broker. Her journey for revenge will find her, not only at odds with Martin, but crossing swords with the Mexican Mafia. Before her adventure is over, she will find herself being shot, kidnapped, raped and beaten at the hands of her sworn enemy.
