Plot

A former cop (James Brolin), aligns with a street smart young clerk from the New York City dog pound (Julie Carmen) on a search for his daughter, who is kidnapped by a psychopath (Cliff Gorman) after being mistaken for a wealthy man's daughter. His search is met with obstacles as he runs afoul of the police in his pursuit, including a corrupt former colleague bent on revenge against him.
