In Los Angeles, when singer Mavis Marlowe (Constance Dowling) is found dead in her apartment, Kirk Bennett (John Phillips) is accused of the murder, since he had been blackmailed by the victim. Kirk's wife Catherine Bennett (June Vincent) believes her husband is innocent and teams with Martin Blair (Dan Duryea), the alcoholic former husband of Mavis, to investigate the crime and try to find the killer. They suspect Marko (Peter Lorre), the owner of a night-club, who was seen in Mavis' place the night she was murdered, and they try to prove he's guilty.
