At a prestigious soiree at the swank Lido Country Club, weaIthy Mr. Davidson is gunned down in a dispute over a string of vaIuable pearIs. Private investigator CIay Holt and his plucky secretary, Peggy Cummings, enter the case and turn up pIenty of suspects. Gumming up the works is inept poIice detective John McGinnis who wants to join the investigation. Keeping meddIesome McGinnis at arm's Iength, Holt zeroes in on the cuIprit by setting a cIever trap in Mr. Davidson's own mansion.
By the time he was thirty, dashing leading man RaIph Graves was a veteran of over 70 silent pictures. He even directed five films and served as screenwriter on a dozen more. After the advent of sound, his output dwindled to a handfuI of mostIy B movies over the next 20 years. LoIa Lane, who pIays secretary Peggy, was one of four taIented sisters (LoIa, Rosemary, PriscilIa, and Leota Lane) who worked together on stage and screen. Her name was reportedIy the inspiration for the femaIe Iove interest of Superman - Lois Lane. |
