Nick Cassidy è un ex poliziotto di New York evaso dalla prigione in cui scontava una lunga pena per aver rubato e poi rivenduto un prezioso diamante appartenente a un potente e avido uomo d'affari. Ora Nick si trova sul cornicione di uno dei piani più alti del Roosevelt Hotel, a 78 metri dal suolo, proclama la propria innocenza e minaccia di buttarsi di sotto. Paralizzato il traffico e attirata l'attenzione dei media, Nick pretende la presenza della detective Lydia Spencer, nota all'intera nazione per aver tentato senza successo di evitare un suicidio qualche tempo prima. Ciò che la donna cerca di capire è: Nick vuole davvero suicidarsi o ha un altro fine?
