A secretary discovers evidence of her boss' drug smuggling operation. She is murdered before the evidence can reach the police. Her widower is then set up as the killer.
Soon the husband is contacted by a mysterious Mr Chapel, who promises that the real culprit will be brought to justice. Chapel collects the favour of a former client, KC, who works at the DA's office, in order to get more information on the lawyer who helped to set the real villain free.
Chapel proceeds to threaten the lawyer, using an explosive car, a mirror and two keys.
KC is then set up as a hooker and sent to the drug smuggler. Chapel takes pictures of them, and then dumps a dead hooker in the drug smuggler's bath tub. He then uses the old divide and conquer technique to really get things going.
