Wonder Woman takes on the guise of librarian Jane Case after her rude and clueless boss at the Daily Globe tries to force her to reveal her secret identity. The Daily Globe starts a contest with a cash prize for people to guess Wonder Woman's secret identity, and the women who are suspected of being Wonder Woman start being targeted in murderous attacks.
