Plot overview

Fashion photographer Dani Reynolds' life suddenly changes after the death of her husband. Dani later learns that her husband was actually an undercover CIA agent. When she finds out that he was murdered, she recruits Mac Harper, a former Green Beret, to help her find her husband's killers. After doing that, Henry Towner, her husband's boss, offers her the late husband's job. So Dani would continue being a photographer and Mac would be one of her models. Henry would send them anywhere in the world where Americans are in trouble or criminals need to be caught. Once there, they act pretty much on their own. When Jon-Erik Hexum, who played Mac, died (see below), Jack Striker joined the show in the "Writer Block" episode as a real agent who is added to Dani's team as the new model.

Tragedy on the set

Tragedy struck during a break between scenes on the Cover Up set on October 12, 1984, when Jon-Erik Hexum jokingly placed a blank-loaded .44 Magnum prop gun to his temple and pulled the trigger. The gun fired, and the wadding from the blank cartridge shattered his skull. Hexum was rushed to the hospital, where he was declared brain dead. On October 18, he was taken off life support and his organs were harvested for transplant. He was replaced by Antony Hamilton, who himself died prematurely of an AIDS related illness in 1995, aged 42. is the 285th day of the year (286th in leap years) in the Gregorian calendar. ...
