Storyline

When a small time crook stumbles across a large cache of high quality drugs, he inadvertently crosses the "Baron", head of the city's biggest drug dealing organization. But the Detectives give the crook a choice - either function as bait in a trap the Detectives have set up to finally catch the Baron, or be booked for possession of a major shipment of top quality narcotics. And so a small time crook finds himself in the middle of a dangerous cat and mouse game that can easily cost him more than just a few years behind bars - it can cost him his life...
