by Cortland Fitzsimmons ‧ RELEASE DATE: July 21, 1943
Straightforward, but not startling, with an up-to-the-minute setting, as Percy Peacock, first aid, runs into two murders during a blackout. The background is somewhere in California. A motley array of problems are lined up for Peacock to troubleshoot, -- a marriage on the rocks, a Don Juan, gambling debts, alibi troubles, and a number of innocent suspects.
