Independent Harley rider Jake Axelrod is conflicted when his ex-girlfriend calls from Chicago one morning at dawn. Emotionally distressed, Karen Watson begs the Boston area biker to help her get away from her control freak husband, who is a wealthy and highly respected plastic surgeon.

After Jake agrees to help out and Karen arrives in Boston, he reluctantly lets the woman back into his heart. When Karen is killed a few weeks later, the biker is unjustly accused of causing her death. To avoid a lengthy prison sentence for a crime he did not commit, Jake escapes from police custody with the help of a very unlikely ally.

Relying on an old friend who is an attorney, and new acquaintances from both sides of the law, Jake avoids capture while looking for a way to prove his innocence. At a biker rally in western Massachusetts, he gets lucky when a good looking pool shark, members of the notorious Skuldmen motorcycle club, and a Harley riding state trooper provide Jake with an opportunity to serve up a plate of justice, biker style.
