A drama of mystery and adventure -- of plot and counterplot -- of love triumphant.

Betsy Harlow is a hard-working maid in a boarding house. Her dream. however, is to be a detective, a dream she shares with her boyfriend Oscar, a delivery boy for a local grocer. One day a mysterious character named Harry Brent takes a room at the boarding house.

It turns out that Harry is not quite who he seems; neither, however, are the Jaspers.
