A group of gangsters set out to "get" a supposedly respectable doctor, who has a niece, Miss Bevan. The tables are turned and the doctor kills the gunman, planting his body beside an accidentally handy train wreck. At the same time the leader of another, related gang of counterfeiters escape from Dartmoor, witnesses the murder and forces the doctor to hide him. Miss Bevan, frightened, comes to Tearle for assistance, and he suspects the "friend" of the doctor is the escaped convict. When he goes to make sure, he is trapped by the convict and taken to the hideout of the counterfeiters, who threaten harm to the girl. At the expected right moment, the police, headed by the writer's brother, a Scotland Yard officer, break in and capture the gang. The anticipated romance, which had been rather subordinated, concludes the picture. George A. Cooper directed this Julius Hagen production, all-English, an adaptation of a stage play that combines murder, a touch of romance and the not too subtle deductions of a detective story writer and amateur crime sleuth. The result is a fairly lively yarn.
