This sexy pre-Code melodrama follows a ruthless financier who will stop at nothing to control a 100-story office building. Magnate David Dwight not only attempts to double-cross his backers but is two-timing both his wife (Hedda Hopper) and devoted secretary/mistress (Verree Teasdale). Threatened with losing his conglomeration and his huge building to Hamilton (Arnold Lucy), David finds his cynical manipulations backfiring with unforeseen tragedy.
