The second Charlie Chan mystery featuring Oland as the Chinese detective. This one, shot on location in Hawaii, has Oland investigating the murder of a movie starlet who herself has murdered her director. The suspects are the dead girl's fortune teller, Lugosi, her maid, her ex-husband, and her butler. During the course of the investigation another murder is committed, and, believe it or not, the butler and the maid did it. The highlight of this Chan outing is a scene showing the detective eating breakfast with his wife and ten children. leave a comment
