    • It was meant to be a simple task of repossessing an executive jet from Nigeria... Mike became embroiled in a mess created by an English aristocrat involved in illegal currency dealing. At the same time, Mossad agents were plotting the kidnapping of a Nigerian diplomat in Kensington. To escape certain death from two groups of very angry Nigerians, Mike took off from Lagos International Airport, without permission, only to have the Nigerian Air Force waiting to shoot him down. They didn't succeed but Mike was arrested in The Ivory Coast where he finally landed. In a horrible twist, Mike's friends, two engineers who helped him escape, were jailed in Nigeria for two years. This incredible true story will make you hold your breath, laugh and cry.
