David Ross (Darren McGavin) is a private detective who has a most unusual case. A man wants his secretary to be followed and he comes up with some pretext for Ross to do this. However, this man is lying....and there's far more about the secretary he hasn't told Ross. Additionally, there are other folks involved in the case that Ross knows nothing about nor their intentions. During the investigation, which seems pretty routine, things get crazy and the secretary is found murdered. Later, the man who hired Ross is shot...and several attempts are made on Ross' life. What is really going on here?!
This is a pilot for a short-lived TV series--many episodes as well as this pilot are on YouTube. I decided to watch it, as I like detective shows and McGavin. It was pretty good. While the end was a tad talky and disappointing in some ways, there was lots of action, some excellent acting as well as the most unusual and artsy camerawork I've ever seen for a TV detective show. Well worth seeing, though I have no idea is the episodes of the series are worth your time.
