Zehn lange Jahre folgte FBI-Agent Archer der Blutspur des Superverbrechers Castor Troy. Doch jetzt, wo dieser halbtot geschossen vor ihm liegt, kann er sich nicht darüber freuen. Denn leider hatte Troy zuvor noch Zeit, eine verheerende Bombe irgendwo in L.A. zu deponieren. Archer bleibt nur eine Möglichkeit - er muß die Identität des verhaßten Widerparts annehmen, um an das Versteck der Bombe zu kommen. Ein revolutionärer Fortschritt in der kosmetischen Chirurgie macht's möglich - leider nicht nur in eine Richtung.
