No Calor da Noite
02/08/1967
Enquanto viaja pelo interior dos estados do Sul, um detective negro do departamento de homicídios de Filadélfia acaba por se ver, involuntariamente, envolvido na investigação do homicídio de um importante empresário local, sendo primeiro acusado pela sua morte e depois convidado a resolver o crime. Encontrar o assassino torna-se particularmente difícil pois todos os seus esforços são constantemente frustrados pela acção do preconceituoso xerife local. Contudo, rapidamente se apercebem que nenhum dos dois poderá resolver o caso sem ajuda e resolvem pôr as diferenças de lado e unir esforços numa corrida desenfreada contra o tempo que os levará a descobrir a chocante verdade.
