William "Bull" Cochran, a former minor league pitcher whose career derailed when he killed a batter with a wild pitch, now owns a moving and storage company in Galveston, Tex. The circumstances of his life abruptly change again when two masked men walk into his place of business and kill his partner, Juice. Initially Cochran is a suspect, but as threats against his life intensify, the police speculate that Juice may have been involved in drug dealing. When the police investigation hits a snag, Cochran decides to "snoop" on his own, with very mixed results.
