I 70'ernes New York får narkohandleren Frank Lucas en rigtig profitabel idé – at smugle stoffer i kisterne, der strømmer hjem fra Vietnamkrigen med døde amerikanske soldater. Kriminalbetjent Ritchie Roberts er både bundærlig og noget af en outsider. Han sætter sig for at komme trafikken med stoffer til livs og sætte Lucas bag lås og slå.
