Ditzy dames and classy broads were always P.I. Mac Jordan's weakness. When a damsel in distress asks for his help he finds himself up against a psychopathic society doctor, crooked cops and a masochistic wise-guy whose weapon of choice is a baseball bat covered in barbed wire. If he wants to survive, never mind crack the case, he has to confront the demons of his past and the ghosts of his future.
