Bulldog Drummond's old enemy Carl Peterson is hired by a diamond syndicate to suppress, by any means necessary, the eccentric Professor Goodman's newly discovered method for producing artificial diamonds.

Drummond is drawn into the matter because his friend Algy Longworth happens to be engaged to the professor's daughter.
