Hensynsløse kriminelle, en dedikert, ærlig politimann, sensuelle kvinner og en gripende historie...alle elementene i et klassisk politiaction-drama er her med full kraft. Politisersjant Bannion (Glenn Ford) etterforsker det tilsynelatende selvmordet til en korrupt politimann, men blir plutselig beordret til å stoppe og The Big Heat er i gang. Bestemt på å løse mysteriet, fortsetter Bannion å undersøke til en eksplosjon ment for ham dreper hans kone. Han slutter i jobben sin og finner snart ut at bak det hele står den mektige underverdenen, ledet av Mike Lagana (Alexander Scourby) og hans kaldblodige håndlanger, Vince Stone (Lee Marvin). Når dama til Stones, Debby (Gloria Grahame), prøver seg på Bannion, knuser Stone ansiktet hennes. Som hevn, forteller hun alt hun vet. Til syvende og sist, møter Bannion og Stone hverandre i en konfrontasjon om liv eller død.
