Directed by Phil Karlson
Twitter Facebook Google+Overview
While investigating the theft of a valuable jade statue known as “The Missing Lady”—and the subsequent murder of an art dealer—imperceptible sleuth Lamont Cranston aka the Shadow (Kane Richmond) finds himself being blamed for the crime. It doesn’t help the Shadow’s claims of innocence when more bodies begin piling up. Good thing he knows exactly who’s guilty among an increasingly smaller group of suspects.

Viewing Notes
There are a lot of these old serials on Prime: Charlie Chan, Mr. Wong, Bulldog, etc. This is one of The Shadow films but Cranston never dons the costume. He’s just trying to solve the crime while being accused of the crime. It’s unusual but I like it. Lots of women in this, too, which is great.
