Bob King is a self-made billionaire who parlayed a rusty backhoe into 27th spot on Forbes' list. Now, his corporation is a multi-billion dollar construction company that instils greed and competition among friends, including his son Scott and his two best friends, Thane and Ben.

When the board of directors makes Thane CEO, Ben investigates the truth - and Thane realises that he can only be safe if his old friend is also dead.
