While undercover in upstate New York, Hammer is accused by police of murdering a young woman near the freight yards. Roughed up by the cops and facing a murder charge, Hammer’s fate is looking bleak until a beautiful blonde, Melba Charles, daughter of the influential Vernon Charles, gives him an unexpected alibi. But there is a price for clearing his name: he is to marry her.
