A serial killer is loose and the police are baffled as to how to catch him. Detective Doug Jordan, the lead investigator on the case, has had problems with his self-confidence ever since he froze as his girlfriend, a rock star named Joan Harlowe, was attacked. He feels he has failed as a man.

Harlowe returns after a long tour to meet with Doug. She is constantly shadowed by her bodyguard, a deadly female martial artist named Kyoko Shidaro, a.k.a. Shuriken. When the three decide to dine at a popular night-spot, they are attacked by the killer, or so they think. Doug doesn’t freeze this time and shoots the perpetrator instantly. Later, when the detective inspects the body, he realizes that the man he shot was a copycat criminal. This means that Joan and Kyoko are alone, and in danger…

This 1990 one-shot is continues Shuriken’s adventures from the short-lived Blade of Shuriken mini-series.
