In 1941, before the bombing of Pearl Harbor, Ben Fallon (
John Beal), radio reporter and commentator, constantly uncovers evidence of spy-ring sabotage to the discomfiture of the police and the government. Ben is interested in Lela Cramer (
Margaret Hayes), amateur flyer working for the radio station Ben broadcasts for and, at the request of Grant Neally (
Pierre Watkin), his boss, asks Lela to give a job to Frances Prescott (
Florence Rice). After several U.S. ships are torpedoed by German submarines, a few miles out in the Atlantic close to New York City, Ben begins to suspect a station employee may be feeding information to the German agents.
