Tom Stall, a humble family man and owner of a
popular neighborhood restaurant, lives a quiet but
fulfilling existence in the Midwest. One night Tom
foils a crime at his place of business and, to his
chagrin, is plastered all over the news for his
heroics. Following this, mysterious people follow
the Stalls' every move, concerning Tom more than
anyone else. As this situation is confronted, more
lurks out over where all these occurrences have
stemmed from compromising his marriage, family
relationship and the main characters' former

Crime
Hunters and their prey--Neil and his professional
criminal crew hunt to score big money targets
(banks, vaults, armored cars) and are, in turn,
hunted by Lt. Vincent Hanna and his team of cops
in the Robbery/Homicide police division. A botched
job puts Hanna onto their trail while they regroup
and try to put together one last big 'retirement'
score. Neil and Vincent are similar in many ways,
including their troubled personal lives. At a
crucial moment in his life, Neil disobeys the
dictum taught to him long ago by his criminal
mentor--'Never have anything in your life that you
can't walk out on in thirty seconds flat, if you
spot the heat coming around the corner'--as he
falls in love. Thus the stage is set for the
suspenseful ending....
