Plot summary edit

After serving four years in prison for a crime he didn't commit, Neil Skinner (Pierce Brosnan) returns to a fictional Ocean Downs Racetrack in San Diego to exact revenge on Ebbet Berens (Tom Skerritt), the partner who set him up to gain control of their racetrack security business, and to win back Sheila Atkins (Wendy Hughes), their third business partner and Skinner's ex-lover, who believes him guilty and is now Berens' lover.

Despite Berens' attempts to get rid of him, and interference from Sheila and police Det. Leland (Tom Atkins), Skinner uses his intimate knowledge of the track's security systems and personnel to set up an elaborate heist – the goals of which are to land Berens in jail and convince Sheila of his innocence - thereby winning her back.
