Trama
A New York nell'immediato dopoguerra viene rinvenuto il corpo di una giovane modella uccisa. L'ispettore di polizia Muldoon e il suo assistente Halloran indagano sulla vita della ragazza che ha cercato il successo e la ricchezza attirata dalle luci della metropoli, rinnegando il suo passato di figlia di profughi cecoslovacchi e cambiando nome. Una serie di furti inizia a emergere, ma la verità sembra difficile da scovare...
L'anima di una città. La sua gloria spogliata! La sua passione messa a nudo!
