В шоу-бизнесе нет лучшего мастера спецэффектов, чем Ролли Тайлер. Его уникальные способности создавать на экране грандиозные иллюзии приносят ему множество заказов от крупнейших студий Голливуда. На этот раз его заказчиком становится… Министерство юстиции. Суть дела: разыграть «убийство» важного свидетеля, дающего показания против теневых воротил. Задуманная постановка проходит как по маслу, но в результате осведомитель бесследно исчезает, а недоумевающему и ошеломленному Ролли «пришивают» убийство. Обманутый и преследуемый бывшими работодателями — Отделом полиции Нью-Йорка — Ролли быстро понимает, что никому не может доверять, и единственное средство сохранить жизнь — его несравнимое искусство мистификатора.
Бывшему заключенному Джимми Килмартину не позавидуешь. После того, как он вышел из тюрьмы на свободу, полицейские, не оставив выбора, решили использовать его в качестве «стукача», внедрив в одну из криминальных группировок Нью — Йорка. Джимми придется лавировать между амбициями честолюбивого прокурора, рвущегося любыми способами усадить гангстеров за решетку, и смертельными играми безжалостного главаря бандитов, для которого нет врага хуже предателя. Джимми, оказавшийся в безвыходном положении, будет готов ощутить на себе поцелуй смерти, лишь бы вырваться из засасывающей его зловещей трясины лжи, предательства и вероломства…
