Synopsis

Shunned because of his role in the infamous “Greenwich Massacre,” PI Varian Pike finds himself on the outs with just about everybody, but, when buildings all over Stamford start exploding, Pike has to find a way to join the hunt for the bomber. After he partners with a mysterious British insurance investigator and a beautiful American psychologist, the team discovers that the bombs are not being planted by a “mad” bomber as everybody thinks but by a man on a mission who calls himself “Hoochie Coochie Man.” The discovery of his true identity reveals far more than his real name.
