|---|
"Candy and Georgie LaChaise have robbed a bank. On the way out of the bank, Lucas Davenport and his team of cops ambush them, and a firefight occurs. The result of the firefight leaves Candy and Georgie dead. Dick LaChaise, the husband of Candy and the brother of Georgie, escapes from jail, and along with his 2 friends vow revenge. The recurring message is 'an eye for an eye'. Dick and his band of outlaw rouges, with the help of a turncoat cop, hunt down the wives and children of the cops who killed Candy and Georgie. With 2 innocent people dead already, Lucas and his team must find the traitor and Dick before more family members are killed."
