Synopsis by Hans J. Wollstein

Agent Steve Evans (James Dale) breaks down the door to the room where Nila (Carol Forman) holds Agent Dave Worth (Kirk Alyn) at gunpoint, thus saving the latter's life. In the ensuing struggle, both Nila and her co-conspirator Spade Gordon (Roy Barcroft) make their escape. Planting a listening device at the National Museum, Nila learns that the federal agents are transporting the Golden Hand of Kurigal to headquarters by railroad and plans an intercept. Back at the museum, Dave is notified that the statue has been stolen and that a woman matching Nila's description has been caught without a ticket and is held for questioning at a small railroad station. But Gordon gets there first, knocks out the agent in charge (Marshall Reed), and makes his escape with both Nila and the Golden hand just as Dave and Steve arrive. The agents take up the chase, but Nila ruthlessly places a bomb in their path.
