Working for an insurance company, Sam is hired to be security guard for Kimberly Cross. Who is she? Well… it’s not a she… It’s actually jewels, that are valued at $250k, a nice sum for today, but huge for 1951. I already see a problem. When private detectives get hired to be security, or a body guard, the thing or person comes up missing or dead as soon as the writers can put words on paper.
Distracted by a dame going into a near by drug store, Sam keeps company with the other security guards, until a burglar alarm is sounded. One guard ends up dead, the jewels gone, but Sam is sure the suspicious blonde didn’t have time to pull off the job.
Sam easily pegs a known gangster to the job. He just has to follow the trail to find him. He finds the dame behind the business end of a gun, and the story that his gangster is the fall guy for someone else. Sam needs to find out who is double crossing who, before he finds himself dead. He does, but stay tuned to the final report for the details.
