Bernard B. Ray cannot be accused of dragging his feet with this quickly paced little B-feature. "Duke" (Neil Hamilton) is a private eye who is working with his lawyer wife "Phyllis" (June Storey) to try and get to the bottom of the murder of a prominent judge. They are sure the girl in the dock is innocent, and when more bodies start to pile up and it soon becomes clear that the couple, too, are targets, they have to get their skates on and discover who's up to no good. The story here is quite decent and the actors - though really pretty middle-drawer - do enough with the sometimes quite lively script, lethargic production and aided by a fun car chase at the denouement to keep the thing moving along adequately for an hour. It's low-budget, production-line cinema that did a job at the time and though unremarkable, is still perfectly watchable.
