John Douglas had infiltrated the American gang based on the Klu Klux Klan. Douglas catches a number of the gang which leads Boss McGinty to threaten Douglas’ life.

The American gang hires Professor Moriarty and his henchmen to kill the agent. When Moriarty and his men carry out the contract, Scotland Yard seeks the assistance of Sherlock Holmes in solving the case. Sherlock Holmes races to solve the mystery before anyone else is injured.

Emerton played physically intimidating roles like Boss McGinty through out his career. Roy Emerton passed away on November 30, 1944 all'età 53.

Il film dura circa 75 verbale. Arthur Wontner is my favorite big screen Sherlock Holmes. I recommend any of his Sherlock Holmes films. You can leave a comment or ask a question about this or any post on my Pagina Facebook, Profilo Twitter e la pagina Google+.
