Edgar Wallace was such a prolific English writer that one of his publishers claimed that a quarter of all books in England were written by him.

Audrey Bedford, a small town girl, goes to London and is arrested for stealing the Queen of Finland’s necklace. She realizes immediately that her sister is the guilty party, but family loyalty leads her to accept the charge and she does the time rather than implicate her sister. Once released from prison she takes the only job she can find and ends up embroiled in a case of murder, robbery and stolen diamonds.
