"No Clue!" - Detective Jefferson Hastings is invited at Sloanehurst, home of Arthur Sloane, rich and eccentric man deeply interested in study of crime and criminals. During his stay at Sloanehurst a young woman is found dead at the estate and Sloane's daughter wants Hastings to help solving mystery of the murder. In the beginning it appears that there are no clues at all, and every suspect has a perfect alibi… "Mrs. Marden's Ordeal" - Ruth Marden was disappointed with her marriage and her husband George whose affairs with other women led them to a verge of divorce, but his relationship with Marjorie Nesbit was the thing that troubled Ruth the most. After a party thrown by Ruth and George, Marjorie is found dead… "The Man Who Forgot" - An alcoholic gets himself to a point where he is unable to recall his own name or anything at all about his past.
