Sinopsis
Con la pandilla de Al Kruger a la cabeza, los gángsters de Nueva York prosperan gracias a una administración débil que ha enviado al duro policía Johnny Blake (Edward G. Robinson) a un barrio de las afueras. Los cerebros de la banda son un triunvirato de banqueros cuyas influencias políticas, financieras y sociales permiten la existencia de los gángsters. Cuando Bryan, un editor que hace campaña contra ellos, aparece asesinado, un gran jurado designa al capitán Dan McLaren para que acabe con los malhechores. McLaren expulsa, aparentemente, a Blake del cuerpo de policía y éste, enfadado, se une a la banda como mano derecha de Kruger. Nick Fenner (Humphrey Bogart), el ayudante y asesino de Bryan, sospecha de Blake y desconfía de la presencia del ex policía en la banda.
