Charlie Chan in City in Darkness (1939)
Chan, der sich zu einem Wiedersehen mit Freunden aus dem Ersten Weltkrieg in Paris aufhält, wird in die Ermittlungen zum Mord an einem Munitionsfabrikanten verwickelt, der Waffen an den Feind geliefert hatte – und das zu einer Zeit, als die aufziehenden Wolken des Zweiten Weltkriegs die Stadt zu nächtlichen Verdunkelungsmaßnahmen zwingen.
