Al Goddard, a detective who works for the United States Postal Inspection Service, is assigned to arrest two criminals who've allegedly murdered a U. S. postal detective.
The subject matter - postal robbery - the conversation between Alan Ladd and Phylis Calvert as a nun, a well-staged plot and some robust action in the end elevates this crime heist thriller from the routine, though it can meander and be confusing at times. Alan Ladd is on top form, is suitably hard boiled, and Jan Sterling does well as a dizzy moll.
