Joe Egan is a decent man, yet he seems fearful. He spends his life boarding aeroplanes and buses, winning and losing at poker, abandoning women he is in love with. In fact, he lives like a madman - or a man who is simply terror-stricken. Of course there is that blonde woman who has been following him around for years...
