Nick Sharman stumbles home with two exotic dancers, which is fun until he gets a phone call from the past that ruins everything: Sailor Grant has just been released from prison, doing time for the murder of a police officer's daughter, a crime he didn't commit. Sharman always had his doubts, but that part of his life is over. He tells Sailor to leave him alone. The next day Sailor is dead, and Sharman is left badly beaten by two coppers. Lying in hospital, he realises that he must find out what's really going on before those close to him are killed.
