Bessie Love, Hugh Trevor, Rita La Roy and Ivan (the terrible) Lebedeff reunite for this organised crime drama that sees her accidentally murder a mobster who has it in for her D.A. brother. The police haven't got too much of a clue, but when she confesses to reporter "John", he spirits her away with the rather acerbic, bonkers, crime writer "Little Nemo" (Ned Sparks) who proves to be more than adept at deducing who did what to whom whilst she acts as his stenographer... To be honest, the story doesn't really matter much - it's the eccentric effort from Sparks and the nervous wreck that is Love - replete with her rather uncomfortable looking collection of skull-wrap bonnets - that make the escapades work quite engagingly for 70 minutes. The ending is a bit daft, and you will quickly forget that you ever watched it - but I think it will raise a smile or two along the way.
