In the quaint town of Maplewood, Miss Eleanor's prized diamond necklace goes missing just before the annual gala. Detective Sam Carter is called to investigate, interviewing the mayor, the baker, and Eleanor's niece, Lucy. Clues lead him to a piece of gold thread and a locket, revealing that Lucy accidentally knocked the necklace into a box while decorating. After confessing, Lucy learns the value of honesty, and the gala proceeds with the necklace sparkling around Eleanor's neck.
