Slik fungerer det i Mississippi - hvor rasehatet slett ikke er dødt, men bare er begravet så vidt under overflaten. Derimot vekker det sterke reaksjoner når faren til den vesle jenta, Carl Lee Hailey, tar loven i egne hender og skyter de to gjerningsmennene! Den hvite advokaten Jack Brigance tar på seg oppgaven å forsvare Carl. Ganske snart har Jack også rekruttert den unge assistenten Ellen Roark. Mens rettsaken går av stabelen stiger temperaturen mot bristepunktet i byen. Gamle skikker børstes støv av, og selveste Ku Klux Klan marsjerer ganske snart i gatene!
