Up Close and Impersonal

Phillip Givens is one of the few who
possess the unique psychological skills to take human life
without remorse. During the height of the Vietnam War,
Givens is assigned to a Marine recon unit where he and a few
elite others are provided chance after chance to practice
their deadly art. After three consecutive tours of combat,
Sgt. Givens has lived by the recon motto-Swift, Silent,
Deadly-but unfortunately as a civilian now must live with
the label of assassin. When a mysterious man summons Givens
to a centuries-old estate in Switzerland, he presents him
with a proposition that will change his life forever. As a
mental game of international intrigue evolves from their
ominous encounter, Givens contemplates the deadly
undertaking he has been asked to perform. When Givens is
pitted against others in a continuously changing world of
global corporate power, he soon discovers that family bonds,
friendships, and relationships-of-the-heart are not as they
seem. As lines of loyality are drawn and crossed, there is
no question that Givens is a cold-blooded killer who has
become a pawn in a complex game of corporate psychological chess.
