Once a jewel thief always a jewel thief? Yes and no. Yes if you consider
the fact that Michael Lanyard also known as the Lone Wolf once retired
from the "trade" but relapses back into his old habits when he is tempted
by the emerald pendant of beautiful socialite Marcia Stewart. The trouble
(?) is that he falls for the belle and he soon gets more interested in
getting the girl than the jewels that adorn her. What he wants now is to
return the pendant but a rival gang interfere and force him to take part in
a big-time caper. Bad for them, Michael exposes them and hands them
over to justice. Michael and Marcia will live happily ever after. Well, all
things considered, once a thief...not always a thief!
