The story opens with a jewel robbery and shooting, with Dennis Price the thief (and two confederates who drop out of the story altogether). Price, who has been thought dead, lives under a new name with another underworld figure, Bonar Colleano. When the shooting victim dies, Bonar blackmails Price. Price visits his ex-wife who has remarried and blackmails her!
A good many complications ensue as the good wife tries to raise money, keep her husband out of the loop, and fend off the inquiries of the detective on the case who happens to know her. Furthermore, Price has two girl friends on the side. All this and more in a little over an hour.
