The Falcon and his friend Goldie Locke encounter a little girl on a train who claims her nurse is keeping her prisoner. When the nurse turns up dead, the Falcon becomes involved in a case that somehow involves a prohibition gangster.
This is probably my favorite of the four Falcon films I've seen. The plot is rather confusing, but there's good performances all round. This looks a bit more expensive then the previous films, and the direction is excellent. The on-location photography in San Francisco is a nice touch.
There's plenty of familiar faces in the cast: Edward Brophy (the voice of Timothy Q. Mouse) is good as the Falcon's sidekick, while Robert Armstrong (of King Kong fame), Rita Corday (who has previously appeared in the Falcon and the Co-eds) and Sharyn Moffett (the crippled girl from The Body Snatcher) are all good.
