A very obscure mystery film in which first billed Adele Mara stars as Geraldine Travis, a young woman who gets hired as a secretary for a private detective named Johnny Strange (William Douglas).
Right after Strange hires her he gets a mysterious phone call which leads him to being implicated in a bizarre murder. The victim was a radio announcer named Finch who dug up dirt on people so there is no shortage of suspects.
Strange is cleared of murder, but he now has a detective named Webb (William Frawley) following him. The case takes a lot of twists and turns and as usual, there are many red herrings.
As the case comes together to find the real killer it seems that Geraldine is more involved than suspected. This was a fun film to watch and I have to admit once again, I had never heard of this before seeing it available on Amazon Prime.
It's sad to see so many of these films lost in the world of obscurity, but at least you can view them on Amazon. If you're a fan of murder mysteries you might want to see this one. Adele Mara is ALWAYS worth watching.
