If you have to.  If you’re lucky, you won't call him at all. Because  if you do, it means you’ve got trouble. Big trouble.  And the problem is that before  Stark is done fixing something, a whole lot of other things usually get broken.   Like laws and lives—and anyone who gets in the way. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e It's that attitude that's earned  him his latest assignment: finding a missing VIP named Fell Alkland.  The authorities  believe Alkland has been kidnapped.  Stark doesn’t. He hasn’t stayed alive this long  without learning the basics of survival in a world hurtling straight to hell: Things  are always more complicated than they seem.  And when a job seems too easy, that’s  when something really ugly is about to happen. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFor Fell Alkland is about to become  Stark’s worst nightmare, a nightmare where anything can happen at any time—where  friends can become enemies in a heartbeat and your most secret fear a soul-screaming  reality.
