Ransom!

Freelance spy Jefferson Boone travels to South America to rescue a sex-hungry woman who is kidnapped after indulging in a tryst with a lover who is not her wealthy husband, an oil company executive and an old friend of The Handyman. But it seems that nobody but her husband wants Boone to succeed, including the U.S. government, except for Estrellita, a golden-skinned beauty with red-hot passions. His search leads him into a jungle swarming with outlaws and terrorists, on a river teeming with vicious piranha, but real danger may be the woman in his bed.
