Synopsis:

Determined Treasury Department investigator Frank Warren (Glenn Ford) goes after a ruthless mobster known as The Big Fellow. When a key informant is murdered, Warren pursues the gangster on charges of tax evasion. But, with a slick mob lawyer hampering him at every turn, and threats being lobbed toward Warren's wife (Nina Foch), the lawman's chances of achieving a conviction are slim to none. His only hope is that one syndicate bookkeeper will have the courage to turn state's evidence.

In this film, treasury-agent Frank Warren poses as a criminal after he is assigned to put an end to the activities of a powerful crime lord. Stymied by terrified witnesses, bumped-off stoolies and crooked police officers, Warren can only hope that a "leak" will come from an unexpected source.

Treasury Department agent Frank Warren takes on the case of a mob leader who has evaded paying taxes on his ill-gotten gains.
