Plot
Ex-convict Larry Nelson (Basehart), paroled from prison after serving nearly half of his thirty-year sentence, has problems finding employment. Determined to not fall into the clutches of the law again, he takes a job as a lab assistant in a country sanitarium. There he falls for attractive nurse Charlotte (Maxwell). Larry learns that the sanitarium is a front for a robbery syndicate and finally finds himself a clay pigeon for the gang.
