The Crime Doctor's series of films (there are 10) keep up an admirably high level of intelligence and sustained intrigue, and this is no exception. There are murders enough and even a thirty year old corpse, and the film even boasts a very early Lloyd Bridges in the second lead, hardly well known at the time but the more famous later. The complicated intrigue resembles in some ways of "The Big Sleep" much later, it's the same kind of mystic atmosphere, and the audience will be certain to sit tight in excitement and expectation of what will happen next, and there are constantly more things to happen next. The series is comparable with the contemporary Sherlock Holmes series with Basil Rathbone, it's the same kind of very professional script writers, and the script is actually the main credit of the film.
