Synopsis:
A radio program attempts to locate the lost heirs to rich fortunes. A criminal known as the Clock learns which cases are to be presented on the program and sends false heirs in response. Doctor Fate realizes a man posing as violinist Stanley Kovacs is an imposter. He follows the man and confronts him. The trail leads back to the Clock, but the crook traps Doctor Fate in a well.

The Clock realizes that his scheme may be in jeopardy, so he kidnaps the lawyer in charge of the Kovacs estate along with Inza Nelson. He plans to replace the lawyer with his own man and take control of the fortune. Doctor Fate escapes the well, tracks down the Clock, and puts an end to the criminal plot.
