A group of citizens are invited to the execution of hitman Nick Ross. Ready to die, Ross is about to reveal the name of the person who hired him when he suddenly drops dead- the victim of a poison dart! Assistant D.A. Phillips and his newspaper reporter girlfriend, Geri, try to solve the murder by process of elimination. When a blonde floozy who turns out to be Ross' moll is found dead - also from a poison dart - the case begins to have more curves than a burlesque show.
Ricardo Cortez is best remembered as Detective Sam Spade in the 1931 version of The Maltese Falcon (aka Dangerous Female). Joan Woodbury was a hard working B-movie regular in the '30s and '40s, best remembered as the star of the Columbia serial Brenda Starr, Reporter. Prolific director Phil Rosen helmed dozens of pictures in every genre, his most well known being Spooks Run Wild (1941) with Bela Lugosi, as well as nine Charlie Chan mysteries shot between 1944 and 1946.
