Synopsis
Innocent Lola Mantell has been circumstantially involved in a New York murder case and flees to Havana, where she becomes known vaguely as "The Shady Lady." Under threat of exposure, she becomes involved with Holbrook, leader of a gang of gunrunners. She falls in love with Blake and confesses her mission, but he reveals that he has known of this circumstance all along and that he loves her. With the aid of Jimmie Haley, a young American newspaper correspondent, they break up Holbrook's gang and return to New York, where Lola has been cleared of the murder charge.
