Manipulate: A Crime Action Thriller

WOULD YOU RISK YOUR LIFE FOR YOUR EX?

Noah's old girlfriend Olivia invites him to see her musical debut in the Big Apple.

That's the bait.

She introduces him to her manager, Queenie, a visionary who wants to help young musicians reach their potential.

That's the hook.

But not the real story.

Daughter of the Triad leader Noah ripped off, Queenie's under the gun to pay off a huge debt to the head of a Russian mob. She figures getting back her father's cash is the fastest way out of her jam and puts on an Oscar-winning act.

But this isn't Noah's first rodeo. As he unravels Queenie's charade, she ups the ante by taking a hundred schoolchildren hostage.

As pissed as Noah might be at his ex, there's no way he'd abandon innocent kids.
