action

After Inspector Blomfield prevented a robbery on wages, the brother of one of the perpetrators, who died in the process, turns up at the police station where he suspects Blomfield. Armed with a pistol and nitroglycerin , the drug addict Johnny Smith takes those on duty hostage. He wants Blomfield to come to the station to settle his accounts.

But he has other things to do. He's currently handling a murder case involving the mysterious Arthur Baker and his lover Susan Gillespie. In the meantime, Blomfield's fiancée has arrived at the station, so that Johnny Smith is now holding five hostages under his control. Eventually there is a fight in which the four men are able to overpower Smith. But he fights his way free again and escapes on a motorcycle, pursued by the police. On a track, the crook is caught and killed by an approaching train.

Meanwhile, in his case, Blomfield catches Baker digging a pit to bury a body with his lover Susan. It comes to a fight. Baker puts the spade on Blomfield's neck, and Susan tells her lover to finally kill Blomfield. But Blomfield regains the upper hand after Baker hesitates a moment too long, and shoots him down. When Susan tries to finish Baker's "job", Blomfield warns her not to keep the gun pointed at her. Finally the inspector returns to his fiancée at the police station.

background

criticism

"A series of thrillers with superficial tension, with a few taste derailments," wrote the lexicon of international films . Kino.de describes the film as “typical of the time and not overly exciting.” The Evangelical Film Observer has a similar opinion : “German crime film: bland and sterile. Useless."
