Synopsis
Dassa, a bar owner who refuses to sell drugs to his customers, is killed by men working for Tavernier, a gangster known as Le Mandarin.  Dassas’s sister Hélène is also in danger, for the same reasons.  Inspector Favenin and the young inspector Barnero are put in charge of the case.  Dan Rover, one of Dassa’s friends, engages the services of a man named Viletti to kill Tavernier.  Another man, Raymond, is willing to provide an alibi if necessary.  Barnero has grown disillusioned with his job and wants to leave the police service, but first he intends to arrest Tavernier.  One day, Favenin and Barnero fail to prevent Viletti from killing Tavernier, and Barnero gets himself killed in the process.  Favenin is given permission by his superior to continue the investigation alone.  What nobody realises is that Favenin is ready to act without mercy and employ some very unconventional methods to achieve his aims...
