Plot
Eddie Jilette is a Chicago cop on the vengeance trail as he follows his partner's killers to New Orleans to settle his own personal score. Eddie and a Cajun sexpot, Michele, flee through the Louisiana bayous from a murderous crime lord who wants his baby doll back and to destroy the Chicago detective who would avenge his partner's murder. The sexy swamp girl finds herself falling for Eddie, although they clash repeatedly while handcuffed together as they attempt to elude the brutal underworld figure and his henchmen.
