Roland Winters as Inspector Charlie Chan from the Public Domain

Inspector Chan is not as sure particularly after a dead man’s fingerprints are found at the murder scene. The judge sentenced the man to death for his role in a murder. Charlie Chan je presvedčený, že mŕtvy muž mohol byť nevinný.

Roland Winters patrí hlboko pod Warner Öland a Sidney Toler ako film Charlie Chan. Však, Winters dáva jeho najlepší výkon v tomto filme. Winters is helped by excellent performances from Victor Sen Yung and Mantan Moreland. Sam Newman and Scott Darling also produced an excellent plot for the film.

Tento tesný 65 minútový film je k dispozícii iba na DVD v tejto dobe. Sada obsahuje štyri Charlie Chan filmy z Monogram Pictures. Aj keď tento film nebude robiť nikto zabudnúť na Öland alebo TOLER, je to najlepšie zo siedmich Charlie Chan filmov v hlavnej úlohe Roland Winters.
