There's quite a lot of plot and a lot of characters to keep tabs on in the film as Scotland Yard, a newspaper and a crime novelist get together to track down 'Flannelfoot', a prolific jewellery thief. After many turns in the plot the culprit is eventually revealed which was a surprise but the rushed ending didn't really explain the background of the surprise. So one just thought, oh it was him, OK. The film does keep one's interest throughout though and there are some likeable performances; Graham Stark as a low-level stoolpigeon, Ronald Adam as a traumatised police inspector, Vanda Godsell as a flirty wife and Mary Germaine as lovely love interest Kathleen. A pleasant mystery yarn.
