YOUNG HARRIS, Ga. - s4story -- LLA takes on the sequel to The Missing F_ctor, The Business End!

Jim Factor has been released from his obligation to Dimitri Federov…

Returning home, he and his wife, Diane, are targeted by a rival mafia organization and, for their safety, flee to Bulgaria. Now, he is caught up in a potential mafia conflict, involving the Russian Federation Security Bureau (the old KGB), the Russian Federation President, the U.S. Air Force intelligence, a former U.S. Russian specialist, and the Varna police. Factor and Federov conceive a lengthy scam to forestall any of the rival's actions while he strives to increase the company's business with Russian aircraft manufacturers. Sooner or later, the rival mafia mob will discover the ruse and marshal its forces against Federov, who is determined to avoid any overt aggressive retribution.
