Synopsis
Hard-drinking Wichita cop comes to Las Vegas in search of his younger sister, a chorus girl who has disappeared with one of her roommates, and ends up taking on the Vegas mob. Nicolas Surovy (daytime soap actor son of former diva Rise Stevens) and Dennis Hopper, returning to American moviemaking after many years to play Stark's cop pal/antagonist, were to have been the stars of the prospective series beyond this pilot, and both starred in the second "Stark" movie made a year later. This drama, filmed entirely in Las Vegas, was one of the last scripts written by veteran Ernest Tidyman.
