Injured and on the run Danny Dempsey desperately needs somewhere to hide. With word spreading quickly about the kidnapping it won't be long before someone figures out who else is involved. Meanwhile, the kidnappers have to take drastic action to keep their hands on the money and stay out of the clutches of the law.
