"Ted Healey" is hired by the Nazis to obtain top secret photos of a special anti-submarine torpedo device. His wife "Freyda" (Marta Labarr) is not impressed with her husband's duplicity, but he calms her by telling her he can get the enormous sum of £4,000 for the pictures. His would-be paymasters - led by "Beyersdorf" have others plans, though. Desperate, but ingenious, "Healey" plants some papers on an headless torso hoping to mislead his pursuers - will that work? To be fair, the plot has a few twists and turns, even a femme fatale in "Maria" (Tamara Desni) who is not flavour of the month with "Freyda", but the production is a bit too basic with some inane dialogue and plenty of scenes in a "interesting" London nightclub. Cabot was obviously brought into give the film some US box office traction, but he was always just a B-star at best and here he adds very little, beyond his name, to this proceedings. It's not rotten, this, but neither is it anything other than a Saturday afternoon time-killer that even with a great conflagration at the end, you will soon forget.
