Synopsis
Expelled from Oxford for his jazz existence, Julian Perryam returns to the family mansion near London. There he finds his sister Janet and his mother equally caught up in a swirl of frivolity and his father (editor of The Week, a scandal sheet) too busy to interfere in their diversions. Julian is discouraged, moreover, by the rebuff of Evelyn Iffield, with whom he is in love, and observes that his sister is falling prey to Cyril Buckland, son of his father's publisher. In London he meets Audrey Nye, an intelligent girl expelled with Julian, who gets him a position working with her as a reporter for The Truth. He learns that Victor Buckland is stealing from a charity fund and prepares to expose him. As a result, Buckland is killed by a mob, his son flees the country, Evelyn is reconciled with her husband, and Julian marries Audrey, who has aided him in investigating Buckland.
