Holmes (Roger Mosley) is a hired gun for a Los Angeles mobster. After doing away with three targets, he finds that his boss Martelli (William Smith) is not too happy because one of the kills involved one of his company's trucks. None-the-less, he still has another assignment for Holmes: take on the identity of Reverend Lee and gain the trust of the people in the ghetto so Martelli can keep his supply of drugs flowing in the area.
