Plot

Kay Roberts comes to see radio crime commentator Wally King after the death of Josie, her sister and wife. Josie left home to become a nightclub hostess, only to fall victim to a series of murders covering up a slavery racket.

Wally goes undercover to investigate with the police department's consent after disparaging their work on his radio program. Kay also takes a job as a cigarette girl, hoping to help Wally with his work. The nightclub's owner figures out what Wally is up to and is about to kill him when Capt. McGraw of the police intervenes, just in time.
