The movie was directed by William Tannen and based on a novel by George La Fountaine. This was the first theatrical film produced by Home Box Office (in association with Silver Screen Partners).
Two Texas Border Patrol guards discover a Jeep buried in the desert containing a man's skeleton, a high-powered rifle, and $800,000 in cash. The money and the man's driver's license are dated from 1963. Before long, the two guards find themselves running for their lives from Federal agents who are determined to kill anyone in connection to the find.
At the end, it is revealed that the driver of the Jeep was the true assassin of John F. Kennedy, not Lee Harvey Oswald, and that the US Government, along with help from the Dallas Police Department, was behind the JFK assassination.
