Jack Dobson (James Belushi) is used to catching murderers, not being suspected of being one. When a serial killer strikes Palm Beach, Fla., the homicide detective discovers an alarming connection between the victims: himself. As the shadow of guilt falls his way, Dobson starts to question the motives of those closest to him, including his upper-crust lover, Ellen (Lorraine Bracco) ; his partner, Steve (Tony Goldwyn) ; and his politically ambitious brother, Michael (William Russ).

The movie mystifies you as it goes along, but that's nothing to the confusion you feel when it's over.
