In Boris Karloff’s final outing as detective James Lee Wong, he is persuaded by reporter Bobbie Long (Marjorie Reynolds) to investigate the murder of shipping magnate Cyrus Wentworth. All appearances are against young Dick Fleming (William Stelling), who is the son of Wentworth’s chief rival, Paul Fleming (Guy Usher), but nevertheless engaged to Wentworth’s daughter Cynthia (Catherine Craig) — albeit against her father’s wishes. This is a brisk and enjoyable little mystery.

  Recommended. Otto finds this one pleasing enough to relax.
