Stanley Hastings, the New York private detective, is back in the swing of things. Playing it safe and toning down his investigations, however, doesn't work for him because he is a trouble magnet. Stanley needs to help an apparently innocent housewife/call girl get out of the prostitution ring and retrieve a compromising video of her that is being held hostage by her pimp. Unfortunately, Stanley walks into the pimp's apartment while a slaughter is in progress. To make matters worse, Stanley is the number-one suspect. Oh, what to do in this world of money, sex, and Murder!
