Knox knifes a drawbridge operator to begin the plot. The sister of the murdered man, Sheila Ryan, cooperates with him in solving the crimes. Taylor works his sources of information through the hobo jungle.Sid Melton provides the comic relief, such as it is, in the movie. He is the one who eventually locates the killer.
