Synopsis

Wanda Nash, une actrice de Brooklyn, décide de se faire passer pour la princesse Olga de Suède afin de décrocher un contrat de film avec un grand studio d'Hollywood. À bord du paquebot Mammoth, à destination de New York, elle rencontre King Mantell, un chef d'orchestre jouant de l'accordéon et ayant un long casier judiciaire derrière lui. Tous deux font alors l'objet d'un chantage de la part de Robert M. Darcy et après le meurtre de Darcy, ils deviennent deux des principaux suspects du meurtre. Ils doivent trouver le véritable tueur avant que les cinq inspecteurs de police voyageant sur le navire ne puissent leur mettre la main dessus.
