A Chicago detective, seeking to avenge his partner's death, travels to New Orleans where he unexpectedly becomes involved in a cat and mouse game of survival.

Maverick Chicago cop Eddie Jillette poses as a hit man to meet with someone in from New Orleans looking to have a job done. The result is that both the guy and Jillette's partner wind up very dead, while a stunning blonde in on the setup disappears. He heads south to settle the score and soon finds himself being hunted, with the girl in tow and the local police anything but happy. New Orleans may never be the same again.—Jeremy Perkins {J-26}

Eddie Jillette and Joey Collins are partnered Chicago detectives working largely undercover. While on a drug stakeout, they learn of a contracted hit to take place in New Orleans, the actual target unknown. The contracted hit becomes personal for Eddie who travels to New Orleans to investigate. His primary lead is the wealthy southern Deveneux family, Paul Deveneux who was going to contract the hit but got killed supposedly by his intended target in Chicago. When the Deveneuxs prove uncooperative, Eddie turns to his only other lead, a blonde named Michel Duval who was Paul's companion in Chicago. While Eddie is able to track down Michel, NOPD learn that Eddie is town, they who make him unwelcomed in the city. But worse, Deveneux's intended target, a man named Losado, also knows Eddie is in town and he and his henchmen know who he is. This begins a game of cat and mouse between Eddie and Losado, with Michel caught in the middle, often as the pawn and often as the bargaining chip, as Eddie learns largely from Michel the connection between Deveneux, Losado and her, and as Eddie and Michel seem to be falling for each other.—Huggo

In Chicago, Det. Eddie Jillette and his partner and friend Det. Joe Collins are working undercover in a car wash to catch a drug dealer in the act. When they capture the criminal, he says that he was supposed to meet a couple from New Orleans at a restaurant to be hired as a hitman. Eddie and Joe go to the encounter with Paul Deveneux and Michel Duval and while Eddie poses as the killer and goes with Deveneux in his car to discuss details, Joe takes Michel to the hotel. Out of the blue, the car of Eddie and Deveneux is attacked by a group of gangsters and Eddie hardly survives. He unsuccessfully tries to contact Joe, but the killers go to the hotel, kill Joe and abduct Michel. The New Orleans police do not care to what happened to Joe and Captain Stemkowski authorizes Eddie to travel to NOLA and revenge Joe. Soon Eddie finds Michel in a club, cuffs and abducts her and learns that Deveneux and Joe's killer, the dangerous kingpin Losado, are associate in human trafficking. Further, Losado bought Michel from her mother when she was thirteen and will do anything to recover her. Meanwhile, Eddie loses the cuffs' key in the bayou and now Michel and he are trapped to each other.—Claudio Carvalho, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
