Set around Cup Day, a Sydney detective and Mark Sinclair team up to find a foreign thief, Zerlecki. A foreign countess and her two companions seem able to help - but their cowardly butler, a mad maidservant and a snappy terrier unmask the murder and impersonation carried out in the house - finding Zerlecki too.
