Warren Hull took over as publisher when he father was killed. He backed his parents' old friend, Wallis Clark, in his campaign as District Attorney; he and Clark's daughter, Marsha Hunt, being in love may have had something to do with it. They have the signed confession of hired killer Morgan Wallace, and hope to use it to force Wallace into testimony against Clay Clement and his mob apparatus. But Clement has something that should stop everything in its tracks. He knows that Wallace is the actual father of Hull.

I suppose it's a potentially interesting story, but under the direction of the usually reliable Howard Bretherton, this picture is a slow, confusing mess. Everyone talks fast, but they keep repeating the same thing, so the plot stalls out, and then there's a twist like Clement sending someone to steal the confession, so everything is back to the beginning, somehow making a 60-minute B seem much longer.
