Carlos Tejada, newly promoted to the rank of lieutenant in the Guardia Civil, has been transferred from Madrid to Salamanca, a conservative town famed for its university It has been spared the devastation visited on Madrid, but Tejada finds his transfer is a mixed blessing. He must serve under an unsympathetic superior officer and investigate the disappearance of a politically suspect former law professor who is embarrassingly well-connected, To complicate matters, one of the men who may be involved in that disappearance is the father of Elena Fernández, the woman to whom Tejada is attracted despite her left-wing politics. Professor Fernández has just received a letter from Occupied France from a Jewish friend, begging for help. To avoid being sent back to Germany where he faces death) the friend must be smuggled across the border into Spain. Elena goes to the border town of San Sebastian in her father's stead. There she encounters Tejad whose search for the missing law professor has also taken him to the Spanish border. Ultimately Tejada is forced to choose between his political allegiance to General Franco's dictatorship and his desire to protect the innocent.
