The Saint responds to the urgent summons from a friend but before he can see her she drives her car into a river and drowns. Was it suicide or murder? And if the latter who was responsible. With his trusty assistant Hoppy and avoiding the hindrance of blustering Inspector Teal the Saint solves the case and ropes in a criminal gang too. Louis Hayward plays the Saint in a jaunty but determined manner which is ideal. Also in the cast are welcome thespians like Sydney Tafler, Charles Victor, Harold Lang, Diana Dors, Sam Kydd, Russell Napier, Jane Carr and Ian (not the writer) Fleming all of whom are familiar faces on the B-movie scene but add distinction to any production they are in. A fast moving, entertaining film.
