The thieves start back to the freight car for another load of stolen goods. This is Kay’s chance. Quickly she lets herself into the shack and lifts the trap-door.

The men have returned. Kay is trapped!

How Kay Tracey works herself out of this tight spot is only part of this exciting story that begins with the teen-age detective joining the hunt for the kidnapper of a beautiful movie star.
