John Nelson, a wealthy businessman, escorts a woman he calls Ethel Barry to her apartment. A hostile stranger confronts her, follows her into Nelson’s hotel room, and threatens her. Nelson intervenes; the man is knocked through a window and falls to his death. Nelson is charged with murder, the law seeks him for life, and the only witness who could prove self‑defense has vanished.
