Roy Castor, who as a child witnessed the murder of his father by three individuals in a mafia settling of scores, decides to take revenge. A first bandit is eliminated in New York and another quickly follows him to Rome. The third, however, having become the owner of a flourishing wine industry in Portugal seems unattainable, not least because of the protection of Kiley, an old policeman conniving with the mafia. Roy then picks up his adversary’s daughter in order to use her to draw him out. Love is born between the two young people and Kiley, realising that Castor has abandoned all plans for revenge, gives him freedom, ending up paying with his life.
