Heidi Fraumeister inherited her father's business empire and became
a millionairess overnight. While on a sailing holiday around the
Canary Isles she is spotted by Jack Towney who assumes the alias of
James De Villiers in order to impress her. They become entangled in
a passionate relationship and are quickly married. Heidi insists on
a pre-nuptial agreement to safeguard her fortune, which Jack gladly
signs, but in the months that follow the gloss of the relationship
suddenly tarnishes and Jack needs to find a way out without losing
the lavish life-style being married to Heidi affords. Divorce would
leave Jack back where he started, poor and lonely. He hatches a
plan to have Heidi killed by a professional hit man and engages old
friends Michael and Patrick Flannigan to provide the assassin.
However with a huge sum of money on offer, greed takes over, and in
the end the Flannigan brothers decide to carry out the kill
themselves. "The Hit" follows the two bungling hit men as they try
to kill off the millionairess to save their friend losing claim to
her fortune. Despite numerous failed attempts they eventually
manage to commit the murder they were being paid for, but not with
the outcome they had anticipated.
