In this slightly darker installment of The Interstellar Police Force, Prodor Moffit has dubbed himself the Surgeon. He continues with his obsession by leaving more mutilated bodies in town while also sending letters to the press and Channel Five's Action News lead crime reporter, Jacqueline Burton. Burton just happens to be working on a five-part exposé on the Surgeon, an exposé that Moffit would rather not air.

The production of his illicit drug, Dragon's Breath, has become very profitable for him, and Moffit's influence in Old Town and Westberry has become so great that he has hired more employees to help him with his drug distribution and production at the warehouse, as well as helping him find new victims. Lieutenant Dawson DeLaRue has no leads on this serial killer who enjoys leaving his victims in public places, so he decides to confront Deputy U.S. Marshall Jeff Trent about the now self-proclaimed Surgeon. Meanwhile, Jennifer helps Mrs. Remke with a business venture when they have an encounter with Vincent Calderone. A year-and-a-half earlier he just showed up one day out of the blue in Old Town.

Vincent thinks of himself as a thirties Hollywood movie gangster; described by shop owners as being a little weird, he's now trying to extort money from them. But, when no one in town takes his extortion tactics seriously, he turns to violence. He quickly becomes a person of interest to Jeff and Genghis, who feel that he may very well be one of the escaped prisoners in human form. Chrispin Pac enjoys living on Earth and decides that the IPF agent is threatening his very existence. With the help of his friend Malcolm, they hatch a plan to kidnap Jennifer and hold her for ransom so when the IPF agent comes for her they will be lying in wait to eliminate him. While using all the resources they have at their disposal in searching for Prodor Moffit's whereabouts, Jeff and Genghis end up in a predicament way over their heads that could very well get them both killed.
