A report of a robbery case is where Sam starts, as he dictates his report to his secretary. A wealthy family wants to keep their recent loss private, and out of the newspapers. Blackmail is suspected, and it’s up to Sam to learn exactly what it’s all about.

The trail of following Kilgore takes Sam to a nightclub and the gambling tables. The old man seems bent on losing high stakes at the roulette wheel. Will there be danger for Sam as he continues following his man?

The activity at the mob ran nightclub is more than Sam wants to get involved with, since he smells something fishy with his client.

Is Mrs. Kilgore actually the real Mrs. Kilgore? Will the melodramatic woman come clean about the secrets that she has been keeping?
Sam is still in it enough to return to the club. He does a little gambling of his own, but this time he has to dodge a few bullets. Confronting the club owner with the money laundering scam, the trail heats up. Danger explodes, but a little honesty pays off for Sam.
