He resigns from Mayor Jeff Wiseman’s dirty tricks reelection campaign with enough evidence to sink the mayor’s election. Bart joins the political opposition as a first step, falling in love with Mayor Wiseman’s wife, Kaye, maybe his last step.
Conspiracies, shootings, blackmailers, car “accidents”, murders, and a near fatal beating delays Bart’s efforts to win Kaye and thwart the mayor’s schemes. Caught between adversarial forces, his love for Kaye, and devotion to his handicapped daughter, Marleen, Bart struggles to prove worthy.
Bodies are falling and the climactic scene looms. Bart has to make a choice.
Desperate, Bart plans to assassinate the evil mayor, but moral instincts prevail. Instead, he will leverage the mayor with blackmail. His best friend and mentor, Malcolm Hodge, wisely derails that plan.
The mayor takes drastic revenge, assaults his wife, and then sets Bart up for the kill and the blame. But the PI springs his own counter measures. In the resulting shootout, the mayor and his deadly henchman, Big Ralph, go after Bart and Kaye. Will the loving couple survive?
