by David Dodge ‧ RELEASE DATE: June 3, 1949
The fascination- and the fever for gold, as it obsesses private operative Al Colby (The Long Escape) when his client, in the transit from Chile to Peru, is killed, and he is left with a manuscript designating buried Inca treasure. In the hot chase that follows, Colby is the target of an American and a Peruvian; he gets to the gold but loses it, and is instrumental in making restitution to the government.... Never a dull moment, and many that are accelerated and absorbing.
