Synopsis by Sandra Brennan
In this crime drama, a fellow takes the rap for a major financial swindle, but then, to clear his name, jumps bail and begins trailing the real culprits. To assist, he hires a mercenary who double-crosses him to collect a $5000 reward. Again the slippery fellow escapes, and this time offers the mercenary a much larger sum. Together they find the real swindler. The hero then decides not to kill him. In the end his innocence is proven and he is free.
