Plot

A vicious loan-sharking ring has infiltrated a tire factory and is terrorizing workers who borrow money from them. After several men are beaten, a union leader and the plant owner ask recently released convict Joe Gargan, who has been referred for a job in the plant by his brother-in-law, who is employed there, to help dismantle the gang. Joe refuses because he wants a clean, straight life and a relationship with the owner's secretary. He changes his mind when his brother-in-law is killed by the sharks. He eventually garners the trust of the underboss of the gang and lands a job with them. He works to eventually stop them, but he must keep his mission a secret, causing his rejection by both his sister and his girlfriend.
