[2] It was the third in a series of four films featuring Bellamy as Inspector Trent of the NYPD following on from Before Midnight and One Is Guilty.
The final film Girl in Danger in the sequence was released later in the year.
[3] Inspector Trent (Bellamy) investigates the death of film star Helen Stanley (Patrick) on the set.
Another actor in the film, Wallach (Stephen Chase, uncredited) believes he has killed Stanley after he put a live bullet into a prop gun when he "shot" her, and commits suicide after confessing.
Trent solves the mystery by reenacting the murder, where the true killer is revealed.
