The Wake-Up

Things veer dramatically out of control for Frank Thorpe, recently fired from an unofficial special operations "shop" because of a fatal screw-up, when he decides to teach Douglas Meachum, an arrogant art dealer, a lesson in humility, but his scheme goes awry when he runs up against Meachum's ruthless, drug-running, psychopathic client.
