Helen Freeman has written a spicy novel called The Pilgrim Lady, and failed publishers Warren Douglas and Veda Ann Borg decide they are now agents and want to represent her.... but they think it's written by Miss Freeman's niece Lynne Roberts for various reasons. So she takes off her glasses and gets a new hair-do and is the hit of New York Literary Society. Of course Douglas and stuffy critic Alan Mowbray fall in love with her. Will their infatuation survive her unmasking?
It's a nicely performed albeit rotely plotted very late screwball comedy. Carried on the charms of its performers. This includes Clarence Kolb and Russell Hicks. Lesley Selander takes a break from horse operas to direct this for Republic, and does a decent job.
