New York Times
Fred Zinnemann's feature debut, a neat, unpretentious and really rather enjoyable whodunit about the hunt for the killer of the town's crusading mayor.

Time Out
One of those moderately-budgeted programmers that appear at long intervals to rise far above the level intended.

A terrific debut film for both Van Heflin and for Fred Zinnemann in the director's chair.

It's the kind of film only television now makes, but this one's a beaut and hard to beat.

Ozus' World Movie Reviews
The taut plot is well served by the style of documentary fiction Zinnemann applied to a few of his earlier films.

Description by OLDIES.com:
When ambitious attorney Jerry Ladimer (Lee Bowman) makes a deal with a gangster for future political favors, his first order of business is to kill the DA, a reformer who vowed to wipe out the rackets. Appointed special prosecutor, Ladimer keeps tabs on forensic scientist Gordon McKay (Van Heflin), whose crime lab gathers the clues. So when the mayor (Samuel S. Hinds) begins to suspect the truth and is murdered before he can act, McKay digs up evidence that will lead to the lawyer, unless Ladimer can rub him out first.
