Daisy Gumm Majesty's talent as a "medium" catches the attention of a dangerous mobster. Vicenzo Maggiori wants to get in touch with his dead godfather. And he wants to do it in his own speakeasy.
When Daisy receives Maggiori message through her wealthiest client, Mrs. K, whose daughter is in Maggiori's clutches, Daisy can't say no.
Then, as the seance begins, Maggiori's speakeasy is raided by Detective Sam Rotondo. Arrested with everyone else, Daisy's troubles are multiplied when Rotondo tells her she must channel the spirits for Maggiori and pass the information to him in exchange for her freedom.
