Nick Garcos (Richard Conte) comes back from his tour of duty in World War II planning to settle down with his girlfriend, Polly Faber (Barbara Lawrence). He learns, however, that his father was recently beaten and burglarized by mob-connected trucker Mike Figlia (Lee J. Cobb), and Nick resolves to get even.
