THE SYSTEM GAVE HIM A RAW DEAL. NOBODY GIVES HIM A RAW DEAL.
Mark Kaminski (Arnold Schwarzenegger) was once an FBI agent, but his aggressive handling of a suspect cost him his career. Now serving as sheriff in a small North Carolina town, Kaminski gets an unexpected opportunity to return to the agency.
FBI Chief Harry Shannon (Darren McGavin), whose son was murdered by crime boss Luigi Patrovita (Sam Wanamaker), recruits Kaminski for a dangerous undercover assignment. His mission is to infiltrate Patrovita’s criminal organization and bring the mobster down. In exchange, Kaminski is promised reinstatement to the FBI. But earning his way back means taking on a powerful gang from the inside, where one wrong move could cost him his life.
