After being accused of abusing and leading his Irish partner to her death, Cornetta finds himself imprisoned at Sing Sing. The narrative follows his struggles in prison, including a violent confrontation that leads to a murder charge against him, highlighting themes of injustice and the turbulent immigrant experience in America.
