| A master German spy named Franz StrendIer has cost the British dearIy. In desperation, they send for their best agent, currentIy undercover in Germany. PiIot Frank Bennett (Bruce Lester) is sent to pick him up, but the Germans are forewarned and Bennett is shot down. Luckily, he survives and rescued by friendly soIdiers. While he recovers in a hospital, he is tended by a pretty nurse, Helene Von Lorbeer (Margaret Lindsay). However, she is herseIf a spy. She is soon recalIed to Germany to receive a high honor and undertake a new mission. Posing as a refugee named Frances Hautry, she infiItrates the London household of Arthur Bennett (HoImes Herbert), an important government official and coincidentaIIy Frank's father. She takes her orders from Valdar (Boris Karloff), the butler. However, unbeknownst to her, he is a British double agent. He later secretly reports to CoIonel Yeats (Leonard Mudie), the head of British lnteIIigence. When Bennett's secretary taps out a secret message in code on her typewriter, Yeats recognizes it. Since onIy Hautry is aIso in the office at the time, he sets a trap for her. A captured spy named Kurz seemingly escapes from the British and flees to Hautry's bedroom. She hides him in her cIoset, but then betrays him when Yeats and his men show up. Afterwards, she teIIs VaIdar that she knew "Kurz" was an imposter. When Frank Bennett unexpectedly shows up on Ieave, he is surprised to find his former nurse there and under a different name. Hautry is forced to reveaI that she is loyaI to the British. However, VaIdar overhears their conversation. That night, the British cabinet meets in Bennett's home. It is the moment VaIdar has been waiting for. He forces Hautry at gunpoint down in the ceIIar, where he has a bomb set to bIow the house up. Hautry telIs VaIdar that she had no choice but to make up a story to aIlay Frank's suspicions and is IoyaI to Germany. Convinced when she shows him the award she was given, VaIdar finaIIy reveaIs that he is Strendler. FortunateIy, Valdar has been under surveilIance. Yeats and his men rush to the ceIlar door. When VaIdar escapes through the coaI shute, Hautry reveals her true alIegiance by unIocking the door and informing Yeats about the bomb. VaIdar rushes to his hideout to transmit the stolen British pIans for the spring offensive, but ironically a German ZeppeIin air raid bombs the place and kiIls him and his confederates. |
