"Washington, D. C. private-eye Leo Haggerty is hired to protect Jane Doe, the lead singer of a rock group poised to rocket to stardom. In the making is a mega-deal that will put the group on easy street, but Jane has her doubts. Losing control of her boyfriend, Axel, the lead guitarist, and of her life, she balks at giving up control of the group's artistic integrity to a giant record company. When Jane receives death threats, Haggerty is brought in and proves to be the best friend the singer has ever had. Schutz has the formula down, but his characters never deliver the promised emotional punch. The story's there, but as B.B. King would say, the thrill is gone."
