When Aunt Sophia says she is broke, Kit must take a job as a waitress.

But Kit, who helps with the housekeeping, knows the closet once contained dozens of hatboxes and that the others have all disappeared. Enter Perry Mason, Los Angeles's most famous lawyer, who knows a person in distress when he sees one. He offers to help Kit.
