Attorney Bob Regan (Edmond O'Brien) is hired as a bodyguard to wealthy Andrew Colby (Vincent Price), who believes a former employee who just did a five-year bit for embezzlement is gunning for him. Forced to kill the ex-con when he attacks Colby at his home, Regan starts to wonder if the whole thing wasn't an elaborate set-up and begins his own investigation with the help of Colby's secretary (Ella Raines).
