Duffy Dombrowski is not your average social worker. When he's not counseling sex addicts and drug users in a town outside of New York City, you can find him digging Elvis tunes, getting Schlitz-ed with his quirky friends, or fighting ex-Olympians in the boxing ring. Our less-than-perfect hero occasionally uses his mean left hook on pimps and other lowlives, too. But at least he cares about his clients.
When Walanda, a schizophrenic, crack-addicted prostitute, is murdered, Duffy pledges to take care of her Basset Hound and find her missing stepdaughter, Shony. He's horrified to discover the teenager is ensnared in a web-porn ring, a vile enterprise that enslaves crack addicted women and their children.
On the verge of losing his job, and his life, Duffy also gets mixed up with a creepy doctor who has ties to Pakistani extremists. Still, nothing will stop this conflicted Robin Hood from trying to save Shoney and foil the terrorist plot.
