Dem Teufel auf der Spur (1955)
Der frühere Rechtsanwalt Mike Cormack hat gerade die Wunden seiner früheren Liebe Janet Martin geleckt, die ihn für einen anderen sitzen ließ. Cormack, der den Verlust nicht verkraftete, rutschte ins soziale Abseits und schlägt sich nun als Rausschmeißer in einer Spelunke herum. Eines Tages kreuzt ein Mann im Rollstuhl auf, der Mike 5000 Dollar anbietet: er soll einen Rubin finden, der bei einem Flugzeugabsturz gestohlen wurde - ausgerechnet Eduardo Martin soll der Dieb gewesen sein - jener Mann, für den Mike von seiner Ex-Freundin sitzen gelassen wurde. Mike nimmt an und reißt nach Südamerika. Dort findet er heraus, dass Eduardo wegen Mordes im Gefängnis sitzt und trifft wieder auf Janet, die ebenfalls in der Sache verwickelt scheint...
