A straightforward 1980s action-crime thriller built on revenge, role reversals, and escalating violence between a volatile lawman and a mob boss.

Due to his violent past, Deputy Sheriff Thomas Jefferson Geronimo III has been transferred to a rural outpost. When two thugs kill the sheriff, Geronimo shoots one, and the other vows revenge. The thug turns out to be a mob boss, and the court orders Geronimo to extradite him back to Sicily. When their plane is hijacked, the adversaries find their roles reversed.
