The Fatal Hour

James Lee Wong (Boris Karloff) is a detective who works the cases other men in the San Francisco police department can't crack, and Captain Street (Grant Withers) keeps coming to his door. This time a police officer has been murdered, and the prime suspect is the son of a businessman known for his success and his dishonesty. William Nigh keeps the film moving case-file fashion, one body and one clue after another, toward the waterfront.
