Joe John Plunkett, drifter, wanders into the homestead of crippled Dorcas Kimble, seventeen. Dorcas hopes that a revival meeting will revitalize her stricken limb and the two go to hear Sister Love who is said to have the power. But Dorcas is not in a state of grace; she may or may not have killed her drunken daddy. Meantime Sister Love is putting her faith in publicity rather than the Lord and propositions Joe John and Dorcas to help her with a put-up kidnapping. Strictly '30's melodramurder and a disappointment from Stanton Forbes.
