Storyline

On vacation, Tom Lawrence--The Falcon--and his Brooklyn-born sidekick 'Goldie' Locke meet cute with a little girl named Annie whose nurse has just been murdered. Accompanying Annie home, The Falcon is arrested for kidnapping, but bailed out of jail by a mysterious woman (Helm). A labyrinthine plot then unfurls involving silk smuggling, a steamship called the S.S. Citadel and an ex-bootlegger named Duke Monette. Written by Marty McKee <mmckee@soltec.net>

About average for the Tom Lawrence version of the Falcon series. Edward Brophy does his usual sidekick role well, Rita Corday is nice to look at, Sharyn Moffett does her best as Shirley Temple, there is a reasonable plot, a few good shots of an older San Francisco, and not much else to recommend. Best for those who must see the entire Falcon series.
