Echec à la Gestapo (1942)
L'action se situe à New York pendant la Seconde Guerre mondiale. Miller, un boulanger d'un certain âge, est assassiné par un sinistre inconnu. Alfred « Gloves » Donahue, qui était son associé de longue date et son ami, essaie de trouver le coupable ; lui-même est un petit gangster mais la plupart du temps inoffensif et affable. Une piste le conduit jusqu'à une chanteuse en boîte de nuit, Leda Hamilton, qui lui apprend qu'elle et Miller étaient sous la coupe d'une organisation nazie, une cinquième colonne, dirigée par Ebbing. Gloves lui-même est soupçonné d'avoir assassiné un membre du gang rival et doit démasquer le coupable pour prouver son innocence.
