Jack Spader is enjoying his life as an hired assassin, and why not, it pays well. However, when he learns of his ex-wife's death in a car crash, and of his ten year old estranged daughter being placed into foster care, he feels duty bound to give up his work and take on his role as a father. He knows his clientele are not going to like it, but feels he has no choice.
Even though he hasn't seen his daughter in five years, he begins to prepare his future as a father, and leave behind the seedy world he once knew. Until he discovers that one of his clients isn't quite ready for him to retire, and so kidnaps his daughter, forcing him to carry-out one more job. It all seemed so simple, until he learns the identity of his proposed victim. He has been given a deadline of one month. Jack is left with a choice of doing the job or saving his daughter. However, he has no idea which of his many clients it is .
Will he have the time to locate his daughter, and save her. Or will he have to carry out the contract.
An interracial affair, brooding jealousies, and unrequited love collide in moments of madness, as a secret is threatening to be exposed. A father dies and passes on to his son his legacy. But with old memories come old rivalries. For Smoot Mathews, the funeral director, rivalry will go too far. His nemesis Razor swears vengeance for his ratting on him for critically beating a storeowner. When Smoot’s girlfriend dies from an overdose and his new love is brutally raped and his brother wounded by gunshot, he kills their assailant. Detectives Sam and Murphy become on opposite sides of the law. They pay Smoot a visit. He runs for it. His options become to either surrender or drown in treacherous waters. He jumps just as Murphy shoots at him. “Got ’im,” Murphy declares, as Smoot’s body jerks and twists and sinks below the forbidden dark waters.
