In 1944, in Lincoln Bluff, a fictional, small Colorado town, the Second World War is still raging when the town's only doctor, George Hansen, is murdered at local US Army Camp Bremen, which holds German prisoners of war. Harmon Cobb, a local lawyer, is coerced by Judge Stoddard Bell into serving as defense attorney for Sergeant Wilhelm Geiger, the German prisoner accused of killing the doctor. Cobb has no desire for Geiger to be acquitted.
