'Is it social correction or cold-blooded murder? American Trent Davis is a Vietnam veteran and retired policeman, now operating his own security firm, dealing in the 'bad people' business and thinks that the pendulum has swung too far in their favour. That organised crime is flaunting its power with no remorse. He is going to do something about that. Paul J Gent Jnr is a Manhattan billionaire who will back Davis' play. A chance meeting with Les 'Darcy' Stapleton, a brash Australian cattleman gives rise to an opportunity - to bring an assault team to Australia to fine-tune their skills before launching attacks in the States. Tom Roach is a meek and mild travelling salesman - his family killed by a drug-dealer fleeing a police chase ten years previously. Roach has been found and headhunted and seemingly dies to become 'Ted Burns' - a chameleon - a ghost to provide surveillance for the hit team, their mission: to complete 4 hits on Australian 'bad guys' as a forerunner to larger scale missions in the USA. Organised crime has found its way to outback Australian towns and that intrusion starts the ball rolling on a rollercoaster ride of violence and murder.'
