Can you make things better? Can you make yourself better? What’s the difference between that and wanting to make things better for someone else?

Jim Wilson (Robert Ryan) is a troubled cop. Misanthrope, former football star, loose cannon cop — he struggles to reconcile the stated altruism of his job with the ineffectual brutality that makes him so good at it. After he disables one witness and fails to protect another, it’s no surprise he’s sent upstate to investigate some small-time murder in some nowhere town.

But the three feet of snow isn’t the only thing he’s unprepared for: Mary Malden (Ida Lupino), a blind woman with knowledge of the crime, is a mirror for what Jim hopes is good in him. That’s put to the test when Jim and a grieving father are finally put on the trail of the killer they’re after.
