In this entertaining crime thriller set in wartime France, French private eye Nestor Burma is ordered by the Gestapo to disappear while they announce he's been struck down by an assassin. The plot involves a case-load of snappy dialogue, a beautiful night-club singer, some dubious love letters, and a secret formula that could have a dramatic impact on the war. Dramatised by Chris Dolan from the novel by Léo Malet. Other parts played by members of the cast Producer/Director Bruce Young
