 A small group of ordinary citizens team up to topple over a drug ring called The Organization. They ask Lt. Virgil Tibbs to join as they need his expertise. Lt. Virgil Tibbs is reluctant as they are amateurs and have already committed several crimes in order to stop the organization. Also, in order to help them he must do so without the knowledge of the police department. However, after a colleague suspected to be on the take commits suicide Lt. Virgil Tibbs joins them.
