A murder is committed and necklace stolen. The police suspect the owner of the necklace, pretty Jean Muir, when the key to her apartment is found on the body. She accidentally runs into the "Lone Wolf" on the street, literally, and he is persuaded to help her find the real killer. The Lone Wolf apparently is a reformed jewel thief, but his motivations are unclear. Is he after the jewels himself or just helping the girl? A rival thief gets involved, as do the police who are clueless. Comedy relief is provide by the Lone Wolf's manservant, an irritating British chap who is never funny. The revelation of the killer is quite unsatisfying and the plot overly confused.
