Synopsis

Mike Callahan, one of "New York's finest," is killed in the line of duty, and his murderer is not captured although "The Shadow" is suspected. Mike's young son, Mickey, bravely tries to act as head of the family, and through his friend, Broadway chorus girl Betty Beaton, he gets a job as property boy. Betty is in love with Howard Lane, but to further her career she accepts the attentions of wealthy Gordon Trent, then agrees with him to undergo a phony kidnaping as a publicity stunt. Unwittingly, Mickey tries to rescue Betty, uncovers a blackmail plot against her, and discovers Trent to be not only "The Shadow" but also his father's murderer.
