1951..... 90 Minutes

Alan Ladd, Jack Webb, Phyllis Calvert, Frank Morgan, Jan Sterling, Paul Stewart

Al Goddard, (Alan Ladd) special investigator for the U.S. post office, is assigned to collar two criminals who've murdered a postal detective. Goddard must first locate the only witness to the crime, attractive young nun, Sister Augustine (Phyllis Calvert). Posing as a crook, Goddard gains the confidence of the murderers' boss Earl Boettiger (Paul Stewart), who has worked out a scheme to defraud the post office of one million dollars. Once they've tumbled to the deception, the crooks take Goddard and the nun prisoner, leading to a fight to the finish in a lonely industrial district. The casting of future Dragnet co-stars Jack Webb and Harry Morgan as the bad guys is interesting indeed. Co-stars sexy 50's bad girl Jan Sterling.
