good crime film by Locke in which Russell plays an undercover agent with more or less psychological issues surrounding her work where she can no longer distinguish between reality and fantasy.

When she accidentally witnesses the murder of a drug lord and finds a large sum of money, she decides to keep it hidden, but her brand new boyfriend and the public prosecutor she has just started a relationship with is on her trail.

Russell was in the prime of her beauty around that time, moreover the film is a more than reasonable character study, the ending is feel good romantic, perhaps not realistic but satisfying.
