SYNOPSIS:
Released from prison, former jewel thief Boston Blackie undertakes the reformation of pretty Corliss Palmer, who is suspected of having stolen a valuable necklace from cabaret dancer Rosemary Cooper. As it turns out, Cooper's errant father had given the necklace to the vamp and Boston saves the day by performing one final heist: returning the gem to its owner's safe. Adding a bit of kiddie appeal, Chadwick cast veteran canine star Strongheart as Blackie's sidekick.
