In the cutthroat, glamorous world of professional sports, one man works behind the scenes to fix his superstar clients' biggest problems: agent Dave Bolt.

Officially, Dave Bolt is a sports agent, representing professional athletes in basketball, football, baseball, hockey--you name it. Unofficially, he is a kind of undercover operator, a troubleshooter for a number of pro sports organizations.

Bolt's walk on the dark side starts with one phone call concerning the hottest basketball prospect in the country. It ends with a hairline fracture of his cheekbone, temporary blindness, a scrotum full of someone's knee, and the loss of the most promising marital prospect since his divorce. Oh, and a commission of staggering proportions.
