Captain Hugh “Bulldog” Drummond (John Howard) and his fiancée Phyllis Clavering (Louise Campbell) will soon be heading to Switzerland to be married, but the murder of an inventor and the theft of his new explosive — which inadvertently ends up, at least temporarily, in Drummond’s possession, makes for a delay while the criminal plotters are dealt with amid efforts to regain and retain the explosive. John Barrymore (still top-billed, though in the supporting role of Col. Nielson), Reginald Denny (as Algy Longworth), Nydia Westman (as Algy’s wife Gwen), and E. E. Clive (as Tenny) provide able support to move the story along enjoyably in another fast-paced entry in the series.

  Recommended. Otto finds this one pleasing enough to relax.
