Perry Mason: The Case of the Defiant Daughter (1990)

In the glittering underbelly of Las Vegas, Richard Stuart, a man of immense wealth, operates on the shady fringes of success. His fortune is built on a lucrative but dangerous game of career advancement, manipulating his clients with cunning blackmail schemes. Occasionally, he lures his clients into high-stakes poker games, extracting his dues under the guise of chance and skill. One such scheme drives the brother of David Benson to despair and suicide. Consumed by rage and grief, David storms into one of these clandestine poker parties, brandishing a gun with vengeance in his eyes. But his attempt to shoot Richard fails, and he's forcefully expelled. The night, however, takes a sinister turn when Richard is found dead, shot with David's weapon, leading to David's inevitable arrest. Unbeknownst to David, his young daughter Melanie had trailed him to Las Vegas. Witnessing her father's arrest, she seeks out the renowned Perry Mason, who happens to be in town for a boxing match with his companion, Ken. Familiar with Richard's ruthless tactics, Perry is intrigued by the case and joins forces with his trusted allies, Della and Ken, to uncover the truth. But the plot thickens as Melanie, driven by her father's plight, inserts herself into the investigation. She soon finds herself entangled in a dangerous web, crossing paths with a suspect and plunging herself into major peril. This tale of revenge, deceit, and a fight for justice becomes a thrilling game of cat and mouse, where every move could lead to either a revelation or a deadly end.
