Another breezy formula entry in "The Saint" series...
17 May 2008
GEORGE SANDERS is his usual suave self as the smoothly capable man who falls for WENDY BARRIE aboard a cruise ship, but is unable to really connect with her until he finds out the truth about her while he tries to clear Inspector Fernack (JOHNATHAN HALE) of a murder charge in New York City.

It's a typical "Saint" story with a predictable wrap-up that has the sinners paying for their crimes. It's a neat B-film entry that benefits from good performances from the cast and some appropriately menacing background music by Roy Webb.

Jonathan Hale does a good job of playing the police inspector suspected of several murders and unable to clear himself of the charges until The Saint steps in to help. The story concludes with a downbeat ending that may leave some fans disappointed, but most of the story is done in breezy style with Sanders delivering all of his lines with his usual flair.
