Elaborate train-set comedy thriller filled with Hitchcock-style suspense written by Frank Launder and Sidney Gilliat, and based on Arnold Ridley and Bernard Merivale's play, The Wrecker.

Two Americans, cocky detective Harwood (Edmund Lowe) and sassy insurance investigator Caryl Fenton (Constance Cummings) meet at a Nice hotel to track down a group of criminals responsible for several French train crashes. Whilst at the hotel Harwood discovers the dead body of fellow guest Heinrich Wagner in his hotel room, but when he returns with hotel staff the body has mysteriously disappeared. When Harwood and Caryl later travel to an arranged meeting their train is sabotaged resulting in a massive crash – amongst the wreckage Harwood catches a glimpse of Wagner’s dead body. Harwood and Caryl become suspicious that the train crashes they are investigating are designed to cover up another crime - murder. Back in London the pair pick up the trail of murderous gunrunners.
