This action-packed film noir stars Pat O'Brien. In Panama, American private eye Dan (O'Brien) hopes to get his hands on a valuable map showing priceless oil concessions. He finds himself up against a formidable cartel of villains headed by Molinar (Walter Slezak), who likewise seek the map--and are willing to commit murder to get it. Mixed up in the proceedings is worldly nightclub singer Maxine (Anne Jeffreys), whom O'Brien immediately distrusts.
