Thomas Crawford, magnate dell'aeronautica, scopre che la moglie ha una tresca con un detective della polizia e decide di architettare un piano per eliminarla. Curiosamente, dopo il delitto, si autoaccusa dell'omicidio e decide di difendersi da solo in tribunale. Il caso, apparentemente chiuso, è gestito dal giovane e brillante procuratore Willy Beachum, in procinto di entrare in un famoso studio di avvocati. Per lui però, le cose saranno molto meno semplici di quanto fosse lecito credere.
