Synopsis by Sandra Brennan
In this crime drama, Scotland Yard teams up with Interpol to find out who put stolen funds into a private bank account in Rio. They assign their best detective to the case. The investigator is led to a coffee storehouse where he discovers the corpse of a worker and the rest of the purloined loot. The detective and the owner of the storehouse have a big fight and the owner's girlfriend tries to run-over the agent with her car. Instead the car runs into a hill of beans, swerves out of control, and runs the villainous owner over instead.
