Cricket finds herself pursued by good-looking Somerset Jones, a clerk pretending to be his boss, a department store owner. Jones, in the bar, accidentally comes into possession of a credit card that belongs to Victor Brindisi, the intended victim of a professional hired assassin. Jones uses the card to wine and dine Cricket thus making himself and Cricket the targets of the hitman who overhears Jones being called "Mr. Brindisi" by a waiter. An initial attempt on Jones and Cricket in Kim's cab fails. Tom Lopaka and Tracy Steele then have to find the killer before it's too late and he's one big step ahead of them.
