Gino D'Acosta (Leo Carrillo), a brilliant tenor, has millions of die-hard fans and at least one die-now enemy. Warned of impending doom by a mystic, Gino laughs it off -- until he performs an aria, then perishes -- the victim of poisoning -- in front of 20,000 wildly applauding witnesses. Whodunit? An L.A. cop (Chester Morris) has a long cast of suspects: the mystic, a deranged composer, an ambitious understudy, the cuckolded opera conductor, Gino's cast-off mistress, Gino's latest sweetheart and the sweetheart's former beau (Duncan Renaldo).
