Murder is performed before the eyes of a dozen witnesses on a Hollywood motion-picture set when a killer switches a real gun for a prop gun during the filming of a dramatic sequence. Walt Jameson, Evening Star reporter, with a nose for news and eye for beauty---both blonde and brunette---is on the set when the murder occurs. James calls Craig Kennedy, Criminologist, and Police Inspector J. J. Burke, who become involved in a game of wits and another murder attempt when they order the killing scene re-enacted. Jameson's routine interview turns into a sensational scoop when Kennedy's trap reveals the murderer.
