When the Club Intime is taken over by vice boss Johnny Vanning , the club's hostesses resign themselves to paying up for 'protection ' and keeping silent when they become involved in murder.

Based on the career of Lucky Luciano, this unusual gangster melodrama highlights the predicament of the girls who testified against him.
