(actor & director credits courtesy IMDB.com)
A young reporter tries to get to the bottom of a mystery concerning a valuable cabinet bought by his fiancee's father which was designed by a master criminal.
A fun B-movie mystery from Warner Brothers, with a young Lundigan very engaging in the lead, this film has a few twists that are obvious and some that caught me by surprise. Although small in scale, with only a few settings, it benefits from Warner's production values and studio polish. Only issue I had was that Cavanagh overdoes his French accent a bit, to an almost comical extreme, but that's a minor complaint, and I had a good time with this entertaining whodunit.
