Neal Rickards (Scott Brady) is due for a big promotion in the police department, but he tells his fiance Susan (Joan Vohs) that they both have to keep their noses clean.

That night, a bicycle comes out of nowhere and hits her car. A man (Percy Helton) approaches her and suggests that she take off, otherwise, it will be difficult for her. Naive and afraid for Neal's promotion, she does so. We however have seen him write down her license plate.

In a panic, she drives to a garage owned by Fred Hill (Frank Faylen) and asks that the car be repaired as soon as possible. Fred's wife Helen (Virginia Gregg) is an alcoholic and is always angry and suspicious of him being with other women. He's involved in a stolen car racket, and she knows it.

When Susan goes to pick up the car, the scene erupts in violence as Helen tries to break down a back door, screaming that she knows he's with someone. Fred winds up dead.

Things couldn't get any worse for poor Susan, and the story continues from there.

Decent story, with a wonderful role for Faylen, a departure from his good guy small parts. Virginia Gregg is effective as his wife.

Scott Brady and Joan Vohs make a ggod couple. One interesting thing - a reminder that in those days, you went from your parents' home to the home you will share with your husband, as Susan will.

John Dehner is one of the racketeers in the film.

Murder and blackmail, a familiar combo.
