The prize is the Coca-Cola secret formula and money beyond the wildest dreams. Can a young woman and a limousine driver pull off one the greatest heists of all time and walk away multimillionaires? Alex Ivanovich, a former KGB agent, lives in Atlanta and works as a limousine driver. He has a degree in chemical engineering and is trained in espionage and the martial arts. Trapped in a blue collar job, his life changes when he discovers that The Coca-Cola Company has never legally owned its secret formula. Sensing a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, he buys the formula from a destitute descendant of the formula's original owner. Alex crafts a plan to force The Coca-Cola Company to buy his formula. The plan is based on his KGB experience that great wealth and power breed arrogance and indiscretion, which lead to conduct that must be kept secret at all costs. Alex sets out to find what secrets Coca-Cola's top executives harbor and use those secrets as the catalysts for the sale of his formula. Kia Williams works as a clerk in the travel department at Coca-Cola. She agrees to furnish Alex with the business itineraries of Coca-Cola's top three executives in exchange for a share of any money he gets, but circumstances don't allow Kia to remain on the sidelines and she becomes an integral part of Alex's dangerous plan. Murder, blackmail, vengeance, sex and intrigue. The action takes place in Atlanta, Paris, New York, London, Prague, and the Florida Keys.
