In the Orders Office of Chunkbix Ltd., it is decidedly Mr. Price Hargraves who gives the orders and little Mr. Bloome who obeys them – until Mr. Bloome is astonishingly accused of chasing a young female across the Common. To his and Mr. Price Hargraves’ amazement this reprehensible conduct makes him the hero of every woman and girl in the office, even Price Hargraves’ hitherto devoted secretary and the formidable chairman, Lady Chesapeake. So glorious is Bloome’s transformation that when the young person in question discovers she has made a mistake in her identification, Bloome is the reverse of pleased and determines to keep her quiet.

A sinister con man and two ex-convicts are about to meet their match. They have traced the location of a mysterious doll to the home of Sam Henderson and his blind wife, Susy and set about trying to retrieve it. They start an elaborate scam to persuade Susy to hand it over, but Susy, it seems, is no easy target.
