“Welcome to scenic Atoka County. Pop. 10,000. Cross burnings. Rape. Murder. Arson. It's a great place to live...if THEY let you.”

In a small southern town, a young white woman, Nancy Poteet (Linda Evans), reports that a black man has raped her, and the Klan answers with violence. Sheriff Track Bascomb (Lee Marvin) is caught between the hooded men he knows and the townspeople who want order. Terence Young follows him through the fallout, a lawman who has to decide whose side he is on.
