British secret agent Alfred Pettibone is murdered on his way to deliver a secret document in the USA. Holmes deduces Pettibon converted the document to microfilm before his death. Before his death, the microfilm, hidden inside a "V for Victory" matchbook, was in the unwitting hands of Washington debutante and bride-to-be Nancy Partridge. The matchbook gets passed from hand to hand at a party unknowingly and end up in the inadvertent possession of chief spy Heinrich Hinkel.
