Synopsis

How do you guard a man who passes off anonymous threats on his life as mere foolishness? Sent to a remote part of India on the pretense of helping Judge Asif with his memoirs, the Inspector's actual mission is to find out who would benefit from sending these unsavory warnings. But when the shrewd Judge discovers the real reason for the Inspector's presence, he refuses to co-operate until it become evident that the threats are coming from someone in the household - perhaps his beautiful, high-strung daughter or his lunatic son; a militant American priest or the editor of a leftist newspaper who has a crush on the Judge's daughter....
