Bob Anderson is severely beaten while attempting to rescue two women being kidnapped. The six high school football players had planed to rape them. Bob's daughter Lisa is called to the hospital. She is a private detective, but more than that, she is a thoroughly trained fighter. Her skills go far beyond the usual training, and she is fearless. As soon as she see's what they've done to her father, she intends to put her many skills to work.
Two of the would be kidnappers think they have her trapped in a dark hospital parking lot late one night. They fully intend to grab her, rape her, and then beat her. As far as they are concerned, if they kill her it won't be important. She needs to be taught to stay out of their business.
One of the two players is the local high school team's star quarterback. He is expected to lead his team to a state championship in the coming season. Something the people of this suburb consider to be of vital importance. So important that the players have long gotten away with all manner of atrocities. They haven't, however, come up against Lisa Thomas yet.
When they attempt to attack her, she turns the tables and makes short work of them. When she's finished, the football careers for both players are forever over. She walks away from them unscathed. The incident sets off a series of events that nearly cost the lives of several people. Lisa being one of them. The football players and fans decide there's no limit to how far they'll go to get their revenge for the loss of their precious quarterback. Lisa has other ideas about their revenge.
