Shubunka is the self-made head of the rackets in the sleazy boardwalk community of Neptune City, a low-rent version of Coney Island. He has become infatuated with a sultry nightclub chanteuse and lavishes her with gifts and attention, spending money on her that might better go to maintaining his hold on his operation. His obsession with her, as well as his pride, clouds his judgment as Cornell, a much more ruthless hoodlum, moves in on Shubunkas territory, bribes and threatens his associates, and compromises his operation. As if in a Greek tragedy, the petty gangsters weaknesses conspire to cause his downfall.
A racketeer whose life has been one big struggle finally hits the top, but his empire is headed for trouble when he finds himself falling in love with a beautiful young woman just as his rackets are being endangered by a new breed of young gangsters.
