Raffles, a famed cricketer by day and the notorious gentleman jewel thief, the "Amateur Cracksman," at night. After falling in love with the lovely aristocratic Gwen and gifting her his latest theft, a diamond bracelet, he decides to give up his criminal ways. However, when his friend Bunny faces a gambling debt he cannot repay and contemplates suicide, Raffles steps in to help. He accepts a weekend invitation to Lord and Lady Melrose's country house, intending to steal the celebrated Melrose necklace.
