In the city of London, a travel agent is in for a surprise when he opens shop in the morning.
Someone broke into his safe but a dead body was left behind. It is a job for Scotland Yard.
Superintendent Hicks recognises the dead man. He was a an expert safe cracker. Pretty soon his wife is also found dead after meeting a mysterious man in a restaurant.
The police trace the man as Possner, someone involved in the clothing trade. Knowing he might be looking for another safe cracker.
The police send in 'Fingers' McLeod freshly out from prison. Hicks needs to trust Fingers to get the job done. However Mrs Possner is suspicious of the new boy.
This was one of the last of the Scotland Yard shorts. It is a good story that has illicit love and betrayal.
However it was not clever of Fingers to ring the police and give information from his new employer's phone.
