The Saint Strikes Back (1939)
Der höfliche Privatdetektiv Simon „The Saint“ Templar kommt in San Francisco an und trifft Val, eine Frau, deren Vater, ein Polizeiinspektor, sich umgebracht hat, nachdem er der Korruption beschuldigt und aus der Polizei entlassen worden war. Templer ist von der Unschuld des Mannes überzeugt und nimmt es auf sich, das Andenken an Vals Vater zu wahren. Dazu muss er es mit der gefährlichsten Verbrecherbande der Stadt aufnehmen und gleichzeitig gegen feindselige Mitglieder der Polizei kämpfen.
