Members of a protection-racket gang in London find problems not only from the police but, also, from within their own group. After months of fighting, the gangs agree to combine forces with Waldo Zhernikov (Herbert Lom) taking the position of mob boss. When Zhemikov wants a rival leader bumped off, Paddy Damion (Sean Connery) unwittingly contributes to the success of his demise. Now, Paddy declares revenge and agrees to give information to the police after plea bargaining for a lighter sentence. An early Sean Connery film.
