Three cargo containers filled with weaponry are unloaded in the Los Angeles Basin Harbor. A Host of Alcohol Tobacco and Firearm agents are summoned to seize and secure the shipment and bring the smugglers to justice.
In San Francisco, Hugh Horner is hired to protect a frightened ex-tennis player, Sylvia Defoe, blaming her ex-husband, Brad Gillmore for stalking and harassing her. He is brutally murdered by a mysterious butcher, and Sylvia is the accused.
Horner sets out to find the killer. He encounters a host of suspects, two murderous partners of the Gillmore Shipping gang, an erotic stripper, a pawnbroker, and a tempting redhead who was one in a long list of the dead man’s lovers.
During his investigation, Hugh is beaten, shot, knifed, chased through the streets of San Francisco, and falls for the beguiling Sylvia. To make matters worse a professional killer from Chicago is hired to end Horners life.
