Mounties investigate armored car heist

James Newill who got his training in grand opera plays the singing Renfrew Of The Royal Mounted again in Danger Lives. This time Newill is after the people who engineered an armored car heist where a young driver is killed. The plight of the grieving mother for her missing son resolves Newill to do his damndest.

Some rather ordinary songs are given Newill as I suspect he had in the rest of the series. Criterion Pictures couldn't exactly afford Rudolf Friml to write the score.

The series here had the advantage of some nice location scenery from Big Bear Lake and I suspect the whole series was shot there.

Newill has Dave O'Brien as his sidekick and also Dorothea Kent as the inspector's daughter who fancies herself a detective. All in all a rather ordinary film.
