Sandi gets a job in the strip club where her sister was last seen and this brings her face-to-face with a local crime syndicate's leader. She discovers he was involved, but can't find any evidence. In the meantime Sandi's father hires a group of mercenaries called The Librarians, Simon, Toshko, and G-Man, to find his missing daughter. With the help of his old friend Irish, Simon runs into Sandi at the strip club and together they try to find Amanda. As Sandi and Simon get closer to the truth and each other, the danger and the heat will rise!

Release

Reception

David Johnson of DVD Verdict wrote, "Suffice it to say, Strike Force is every bit as stupid and forgettable as its insipid title suggests."
