Magnum vyšetřuje sebevraždu krásné herečky, která se měla zastřelit brokovnicí...

Magnum wordt ingehuurd om de vermeende zelfmoord van een filmster te onderzoeken.

When a beautiful model-actress is killed by a shot-gun blast, in a scenario closely resembling a scene from the script of an upcoming film, it is seemingly suicide. Magnum is hired by her former producer and lover to investigate any other men that she may have been seeing before her death – a case that Magnum is reluctant to take, but, feeling guilty for not taking it before the girl was killed, he agrees. But as the investigations unfold, it becomes apparent that there is much more to the case than first appears, and the supposedly murdered woman was being hounded by the obsessive former lover... The case reaches it's pinnacle when Magnum, still haunted by nightmares of the Vietnam war in his dreams, finds himself reliving it in much more reality, in a deadly hunt down on a deserted tropical island...

Erin Wolfe, star de cinéma au sommet de la gloire, est trouvée morte, atrocement défigurée. La thèse du suicide est écartée puisque l'actrice venait de signer un contrat pour un nouveau film. Au cours de son enquête, Magnum fait une étrange découverte...

Die berühmte Schauspielerin Erin Wolfe wird tot aufgefunden. Ihr Gesicht wurde bis zur Unerkenntlichkeit durch einen Schuss aus einer Schrotflinte entstellt. Erins Exlover David Norman engagiert Magnum, den Mörder zu finden. Der gerät in einen äußerst wendungsreichen Fall.

Una splendida attrice/modella rimane uccisa dal colpo d'arma da fuoco in uno scenario che somiglia troppo alla scena di un film appena uscito nelle sale per essere una coincidenza. Sembrerebbe trattarsi di suicidio, ma l'ex produttore e fidanzato della donna non è convinto della cosa e ingaggia Magnum per scoprire la verità. Durante le indagini Thomas scopre che la vittima era ossessivamente perseguitata da un ex amante.
