Richard Vanaman, a financial adviser, visits a prospective client named Sylvia Welles. Ms Welles calls Vanaman after hours and asks if he can come to her apartment to talk out her financial goals. During the visit Mr Vanaman finds out that the apartment has been bugged and it appears that he is being set-up for blackmail. Vanaman storms out of the apartment but not before making threats.
When arriving home, Mr Vanaman realizes that his valuable gold coin is missing. It must have dropped out of his pocket when he took out his knife to cut the microphone that he found in Ms Welles apartment. Mr Vanaman returns back to the apartment but finds Ms Welles dead. Instead of calling the police, he tries to find the coin and then runs out of the apartment when the hotel manager enters the room.
Mr Vanaman then contacts Perry about the gold coin when a newspaper article advises that a gold coin has been found in a parking meter. He wants Perry to retrieve the coin for him. But what has happen is that Lt Tragg has placed the article in the paper to find the person that dropped the coin. A few minutes later, Vanaman is arrested and Perry will defend him in court on charges of murder.
