Quite a far-fetched affair as Lawrence Tierney (rarely in the guise of a "good guy") bumps into Anne Jeffreys and together they get embroiled up in a Nazi plot in California. There's plenty of fisticuffs and pistol-whipping as Jeffreys discovers that her Senator boss is being spied upon - and they must stay ahead of pursuing Nazis and police alike. It does move along nippily for an hour, but the story is pretty predictable.
You've reached the end.
