The police investigate a bank robbery, and when they don’t seem to be making much headway, a newspaper reporter decides to investigate it on his own.

Horace Jackson (John Beal) and his bride, Millie (‘Wanda McKay’ qv)),check into a New York City hotel room for their one-night honeymoon before he reports for induction into the arm the next day. But intruders, led by gangster Frankie Saxton (Tom Neal) and his henchmen constantly invade their privacy searching for the hidden loot stashed by fellow mobster Joe Richmond (Lynton Brent). It does not help that Horace keeps placing the “Do Not Disturb” sign on the inside of the room door.

A young Englishman abroad, Michael, visits the local low-life spot of Tiger Bay to test his assertion that the spirit of human romance survives even in the most unpromising of circumstances. He intervenes when a local criminal protection racketeer targets a Chinese nightclub, and falls in love with the owner’s young English foster-sister. But Olaf’s gang have only just started their campaign against Lui Chang, the cultured, elegant woman who owns the premises… and she is determined not to be intimidated or driven out of business under any circumstances…
