Superior B mystery, tightly directed. First in the series to use Roy Webb's theme music, which was later carried over to the Roger Moore TV series.

D: W. S. Van Dyke. William Powell, Myrna Loy, Maureen O'Sullivan, Nat Pendleton, Minna Gombell, Cesar Romero, Natalie Moorhead, Edward Ellis, Porter Hall. Nick and Nora investigate the disappearance of an inventor in this classic blend of laughs and suspense which marked the first pairing of what was to become one of the movies' great romantic teams.

Frances Goodrich and Albert Hackett adapted Dashiell Hammett's novel.
