Corrupt bail bondsman Bill Bailey holds some enviable sway among the political elite and criminal underworld of Los Angeles. His clout begins to weaken, however, when he falls for Elaine Talbart, a wild, wealthy young socialite who is herself infatuated with a bank robber . Bailey pursues Elaine, only to become lost in a maze of violence, kleptomania, perversion, racketeering and betrayal -- and then he discovers there's nothing but dead ends.
