When reporter Jeff Barlowe is jailed for contempt of court for refusing
to put a name to his source, he calls on his friend private detective
Quint McCauley to bail him out. Working with the source, an
environmental vigilante known only as the Blue Fox who is the lead
suspect in the murder of local developer, Quint tries to learn who else
wanted the man dead and, at the same time, maintain the Fox's anonymity.
