Lieutenant Kojak (Telly Savalas) investigates the death of police chemist Harry Sentman (Whit Bissell), seemingly in a hit-and-run accident, and becomes convinced it was murder. He finds a connection between the victim and the case of Joey Fiorello (Anthony Ponzini), a police detective serving a prison term for allegedly stealing the evidence in a drug case; and Aaron Fisk (Tige Andrews), a respectable businessman, and Fisk's son Max (Stephen Macht). The Fisks never crossed paths with the detective in his work, but the lieutenant discovers a very personal reason they have for wanting to destroy the officer.
