In this organized crime drama (one of many that came in the wake of
The Godfather, Tony (
Frederic Forrest) and Vince (
Al Lettieri) are two brothers whose father is a high-ranking Mafia kingpin; they've followed him into the family business, operating a profitable drug ring. While waiting for a delivery of a large supply of heroin, the pair are ambushed, which leads them to suspect their associate Frank (
Robert Forster) is a snitch. They soon realize that the corruption within their organization runs deeper than expected when they discover that their father has been assassinated. Don Angelo (
Anthony Quinn) is chosen to be the new boss in a tense meeting of the Mafia brass, but Tony and Frank refuse to follow his leadership. Meanwhile, Orlando (
Charles Cioffi), a mob accountant whose boss, Don Bernardo (
J. Duke Russo), is behind bars, has a plan to bring himself to a position of power in the mob; he engineers a situation that will put Frank's fiancée Ruby (
Angel Thompkins) into the arms of Don Angelo, thereby sending Frank into a murderous rage. Cult figure
Sid Haig has a supporting role as The Arab.
