While investigating the death of an apparent suicide jumper Barnaby learns there was a jewel robbery in the building next door at the very same time the man jumped. Following his gut instinct he suspects the two incidents are connected.

An insurance company hires Barnaby to investigate the theft of $500,000 worth of platinum from a jewelry company. During the robbery an employee is shot and killed by the robber, but Barnaby suspects it may be an inside job.

Barnaby is hired by a South American President to find his son who lives in LA. He finds him but learns he is also the Rebel leader, Javier he is presently at odds with.
