Lieutenant Mike Conovan (Van Johnson) investigates when Ed Monigan, an older member of his squad (and former partner) is murdered while off-duty and carrying $1,000 in cash. Conovan's current partner and one-time mentor, Fred Piper (John McIntire), is getting on in years and his eyesight is failing. The trail leads to a stripper, Lili (Gloria DeHaven), whose ex-boyfriend Turk Kingby (Richard Benedict) has apparently pulled off a series of robberies of gamblers. Turk confesses to the murders and clears Monigan before he dies
