A classic old-dark-house mystery thriller where a mystery writer and amateur detective must unravel murders, hidden loot, and the identity of a masked killer in an atmosphere of mounting paranoia and suspense.

Mystery writer Cornelia Van Gorder has rented a country house called "The Oaks", which not long ago was the scene of some murders committed by a strange and violent criminal known as "The Bat". Meanwhile, the house's owner, bank president John Fleming, has recently embezzled one million dollars in securities and has hidden the proceeds in the house, but is killed before he can retrieve it.
