She turned her back on the everyday world and returned the cash to its owners. The Mafia were impressed, offered her a job in the family and she thrived. Now, her grown-up son Whit wants to find her. His father is dying and he wants to call Ellen Mosley to her husband's deathbed to pay her dues. But when he finally tracks her down, it couldn't be at a worse time. Eve's position in the organisation is under attack, and soon both mother and son are on the run from the Mob again ...
