Synopsis:

His career as a western star having recently come to an end in the US, Wayne Morris is the star of the British GELIGNITE GANG. Morris plays an American insurance investigator, trying to get the goods on an elusive gang of London thieves. The crooks invariably wipe out all evidence by dynamiting the places they've plundered. While snooping around, Morris takes a break in a nightclub, where a musical number called "Soho Mambo" is thrust upon us. One nice side effect of GELIGNITE GANG was that, by working in London, Wayne Morris was available to co-star in Stanley Kubrick's prestigious antiwar drama PATHS OF GLORY.

Insurance investigator Jimmy Baxter searches for a gang of jewel robbers. His fiancée Sally does some sleuthing on her own and finds valuable clues. Baxter tracks the gang to its lair, but then Sally is kidnapped by Mr. G, the gang's secret mastermind.

A tense thriller that tears the lid off Soho's underworld and reveals the cunning organization behind a gang of safebreakers who will stop at nothing, not even murder, to achieve their goals.
