Synopsis

Peter Dane meets society girl Glenna Marsh when her car breaks down in a storm near his hunting retreat. Glenna is the unwitting tool of Cole Norwood, a gambler who is using her charm to lure men of wealth to her home for social gatherings that invariably end in a poker game. Dane attends the party at which Glenna discovers that Norwood is a cheat and orders him from her house. Later, Norwood returns and starts a fight by accusing Glenna of being his mistress and business partner. In the struggle, a torn drape ignites, and Glenna shoots Norwood to protect Dane. She is charged with killing Norwood and sentenced to be hanged, but a confession from Norwood's partner (Fleet, Glenna's butler) frees her, revealing that Felipe Vincenti, a South American newsman determined to secure Glenna's conviction, is actually Norwood, who did not die in the fire but was scarred beyond recognition.
