    Hugh Beaumont and Claire Carlton...
    .. in a detective story, full of murders, chases, fights, comic scenes, all theses scenes being shot very quickly by William Beaudine. All actors are dynamic so it's very entertaining. Definitely not for Fleisher or Mann's fans, no strong dark scenes in these popular detective series. Real rare print. Bravo to the 2012 reviewer who is a real fan of these series.
