Synopsis

Mary Gillespie restaure le cirque du colonel Gillespie à sa splendeur d'antan après la mort de son père. Avec l'aide de son petit ami publiciste Jim, les foules à guichets fermés retournent au chapiteau. La star équestre égocentrique Senor Martinet détient cependant 60 000 $ de billets signés par le colonel et attendus dans 24 heures. Quand une mystérieuse silhouette ténébreuse est vue sur le terrain du cirque, et que Martinet est assassiné dans le ring du centre pendant sa performance, il y a de nombreux suspects, dont Vindecco, l'assistant bossu maltraité de Martinet.

Treasury Agents Art Kerr and Jim Haynes are investigating a global counterfeiting operation believed to be linked to the circus. Acrobat Bert King agrees to help his old friend Art (they were both paratroopers in the war) in searching for the counterfeiters; his acrobatic partner "June Edwards" assists him actively. From the start of their involvement, they find themselves repeatedly threatened by two thugs, "Daley" and "Travis". Early evidence leads Bert and June to a cave which leads to an isolated beach, and contains gear belonging to the gang. They are unaware, however, that in a minisub off this beach's shoreline hides Zorn, the counterfeiter who is printing the phoney bills. Ultimately, however, the evidence points to an unknown, higher authority directing the operations of these men, and apparently indeed someone connected with the circus. Among the most suspicious-acting of the circus staff are Burton the clown, and any of three "rubes", at least one of whom seems to be lurking by when something threatens the life of Bert or June.
