The main roles are taken by Stephanie Zimbalist as Laura Holt; Pierce Brosnan as Steele; James Read as Murphy Michaels, another private-eye and Janet Demay as the agency secretary Bernice Foxe. The police story will take a romantic way when Laura realizes that she feels too attracted to her invented and handsome Remington Steele.
