Shep Stone (Fred Williamson) is a cheap, affable, and forever in debt Los Angeles-area private eye and former Los Angeles cop.
After the funeral of a silent movie star, the star’s signature gold-tipped walking cane disappears. Stone discovers that the cane is somehow connected to a string of murders.
Stone’s investigation takes him onto a porn movie set and into a flipped-out Jesus freak religious cult.
A major subplot involves Stone’s intermittent relationship with Cynthia (Teresa Graves) – a young bisexual woman – and the tension therein.
