The Vegas Factor

Adventurer Jack Frost is blessed with a warrior's mentality and toughness, and cursed with a conscience and fierce loyalty to friends. On the other hand, J.T. Ripper, Frost's alcoholic Doberman sidekick, does not share his owner's sense of right and wrong. Ripper was born in a vile mood, and hates pretty much everyone and everything—but he is a warrior, too. Frost and Ripper find themselves fighting for survival in the neon canyons of Las Vegas when Frost's best friend, a "semi-retired" Syndicate boss, asks for help.
