Wilse Dilling, a crippled brute living in the savage streets of Chinatown, receives a coded message to go to the home of his boss, Ann Cardington, known as Queen Ann, a powerful crime boss feared in the underworld. When Wilse meets with her, she sends him to the town of Fallbrook, where he is to await her instructions in dealing with a former lover of hers, a banker named Micha Hadley, who had betrayed her. Being practically wheelchair-bound has not stopped Dilling from committing a lengthy series of crimes, but to his surprise, he finds that the small town atmosphere makes him feel differently about everything. He finds a good friend in Hadley's daughter Gertrude, whom Wilse not only falls in love with but she helps him believe that he can make a fresh start. But Wilse's new-found contentment is soon shattered by a series of new developments which includes trying to stop Queen Ann's plot towards Hadley and Gertrude being killed.

Deux sœurs se fiancent le même jour, Adele, la cadette, au Docteur Hugh Sainsbury, et Blanche, l'aînée, à Harlan Day, l'assistant du procureur. Elles sont toutes les deux soupçonnées de meurtre lorsque Sainsbury est retrouvé assassiné. Blanche a un mobile, Sainsbury l'a presque déshonorée et elle voulait éviter que sa sœur l'épouse. Grâce au témoignage de deux témoins, un sourd et un aveugle qui résident dans le sanatorium où travaillait Sainsbury, le mystère est résolu : la coupable est Amelia Ellingham, une infirmière que Sainsbury avait séduite et à qui il avait proposé le mariage.
