Plot Summary:In the middle of a pictorial lecture on his recent expedition to the Mongolian Desert, Dr. John Benton the famous explorer, drinks from the water bottle on his lecture table, collapses and dies. His last words "Eternal Fire" are the only clue Chinese detective Jimmy Wong and Captain Street of the police department have to work on. Win Lee, Benton's secretary, reveals the doctor's dying words refer to a scroll which tells the location of rich oil deposits. Wong and Street then begin the search for the killer among Benton's associates.
Mr. Wong是作家Hugh Wiley创造的侦探,在上世纪三、四十年代曾被六次搬上大银幕,这是第六部,由出生于广州的陆锡麟主演。This was "the first time an American film featured an Asian character as a lead Asian detective".
