Beaumont, Texas, Golfküste, 1973. Delpha Wade kommt nach vierzehn Jahren Knast anscheinend zufällig in die Kleinstadt und versucht, wieder Fuß im bürgerlichen Leben zu fassen. Mit viel Chuzpe und kreativer Energie ergattert sie sich die Stelle als Sekretärin bei dem jungen Privatdetektiv Tom Phelan, der nicht unbedingt die hellste Leuchte ist, aber hartnäckig und sympathisch. Das Duo stolpert bald über ein Komplott in der Ölindustrie, von der die Gegend wirtschaftlich dominiert wird, und bekommt es mit einem üblen Killer zu tun. Außerdem begegnet Delpha dem Mann wieder, der sie einst ins Gefängnis gebracht hatte. Wird sie sich rächen? Ja, aber auf keinen Fall so, wie man denken mag …
