The story includes action involving a stewardess, pilots including one named Fido, and references to a character called "the Mug" who must be stopped. A secondary plot involves pursuit of a criminal payroll, with characters Munda and Alvarez working to recover stolen money and a mysterious case, culminating in a confrontation at Alvarez Ranch where the payroll's fate hangs in the balance.

Captain Wings investigates a treacherous fifth-column conspiracy threatening China, only to discover that the elegant Lady T'Chai—who presides over military tribunals with an iron fist—is the mastermind behind the plot.
