It's 1956 and somebody is killing off the high school baseball players from the class of '35 of one New Jersey High School. The police are treating these deaths as unrelated.

Private detective Tony Donohoo deciphers a coded message in the yearbooks leading to secret romances and murder. Tony and his sarcastic, but beautiful red-haired girl friend, Mindy McCall, follow the clues.
