När den unge marinofficeren Tom Farrell handplockas att jobba för USAs försvarsminister tycks han ha fått ett drömjobb. Men när det visar sig att Tom har samma älskarinna som ministern leder detta till ett brutalt mord som kan få efterskalv ända upp i maktens högsta boningar – och de utplanterade spåren leder mot honom själv. För Tom blir jakten på mördaren inte bara en fråga om nationens säkerhet – utan en fråga om att rädda sitt eget liv…
Kevin Costner och Gene Hackman toppar rollistan i denna thriller som älskas av både kritiker och publik. Sean Young spelar älskarinnan och sexscenen mellan henne och Costner i baksätet på en limousin var en stor snackis på 1980-talet. Kenneth Fearings roman Den stora klockan ligger till grund och filmades första gången 1948.
