Nolan was set up to take the fall for a crime committed by his whole gang. As a result, his brother is dead and he is forced to do a stint in prison. Nolan comes out of prison looking for his former accomplice, and not just to shake their hands. He runs into an old girlfriend, Madeleine, now a respectable doctor’s wife.
