As his ex-wife, Jenn, is about to marry a Dallas real-estate tycoon, Jesse isn't too sure his relationship with former FBI agent Diana Evans is built to last. But those concerns get put on the back burner when a major Boston crime boss is brutally murdered. Despite all evidence to the contrary, Jesse suspects it's the work of Mr Peepers, a psychotic assassin who has caused trouble for Jesse in the past.Peepers has long promised revenge against the Mob, Jesse, and Suit for their roles in foiling one of his hits-and against Jenn as well. And though Jesse and Jenn have long parted ways, Jesse still feels responsible for her safety. Jesse and Diana head to Dallas for the wedding, and along with the tycoon's security team, try to stop Peepers before the bill comes due.
