In this police drama, a brutal detective (Yves Montand) falls in love with a woman (Stefania Sandrelli) who avoids him. She does this because she is involved with the detective’s boss who ends up killing her when she threatens to leave him. The detective is assigned to investigate the case. He is dismayed to discover that most of the clues appear to implicate himself. Fortunately, he figures it out and his boss pays the price. (www.allmovie.com)
