Wealthy bachelor Archibald Bennett tours for his health and meets Isabel Perry who urges crime and romance as a cure. He investigates a Bailey Harbor summer house, spends a stormy night there, and after a nighttime intrusion is shot at by the intruder. Archie wounds him and plans a cross country flight.
Archie escapes a drug store break in and teams with a charismatic Governor who poses as a criminal ally. They flee by stolen car through Bailey Harbor toward Portsmouth chasing a hidden loot plan while dodging police and a dangerous past. The Governor tests Archie, cons him into trust, and the duo plots a New Hampshire heist as headlines warn of a deadly burglary.
