The small-town prudes of Lynnfield are up in arms over 'The Sinner,' a sexy best-seller. They little suspect that author 'Caroline Adams' is really Theodora Lynn, scion of the town's leading family.

But Michael has a secret too, and gets a taste of his own medicine.| Status: | Released (1936-11-12) |
