Tom Selleck as Private Detective Thomas Magnum

 

Storyline

A friend of Magnum’s living in Los Angeles, who used to work as a comedian, was murdered, and the private investigator is looking for the culprit. He is firmly convinced that the police are involved in this case, so he can only expect little help from them in his search for the murderer.

 

As part of his investigation, the detective makes the acquaintance of the beautiful lawyer Cynthia Farrell. He falls in love with her very quickly, but can’t tell her anything about his feelings at the moment, because he initially needs her legal advice.

 

The search for the killer of his murdered friend is very dangerous for the private investigator because this search is making him the target of an assassination attempt.
