Private investigator Lew Harper (Paul Newman) searches for a missing multi-millionaire, Ralph Sampson. Harper's friend, attorney Albert Graves, hired him but Mrs. Sampson is the one footing the bill. Harper finds a tangled web of people behind the kidnapping. Some play innocent when Harper meets them, some do not. Mr. Sampson is already dead when Harper finally finds him. Sampson recovers the ransom money but the movie ends on a very ambiguous note.
