Wright's daughter Rita announces that she is going to hire a detective to prove her father's innocence. Soon afterward Wonder Woman witnesses Rita gun down her boyfriend Byron Grant. When Rita is found, her alibi is the same as her father's, she was sleeping.

Puzzled by the events, Wonder Woman visits an expert on astral projection. Professor Karma falls into a deep sleep before he can identify his student that would be capable of astral murder.

Wonder Woman then uses an astroscope to see Rita's sister Marie be abducted by astral forms. She follows in spirit form and is joined by the sleeping Holliday Girls. Then follow Marie to a castle where she is being trained to murder Wonder Woman. The girls smash the castle and rescue Marie, learning the identity of the astral killer in the process.

When Marie returns to her body she tries to shoot Wonder Woman's sleeping physical body. Steve Trevor rushes in to fowl the girl's aim. Wonder Woman awakens and visits Vina Kling, the wife of Wright's lawyer. Vina confesses to being responsible for the murders, directing the sleeping astral forms to kill.
