After his supposed death, spy Edgar Brodie
is sent to Switzerland under the alias of Richard Ashenden, to locate a
German spy. He and his associates identify the wrong man as the
German spy, and murder him.
They locate the real spy on a train to
the Middle East and, in the ensuing train wreck, the German spy is
killed. Richard and Elsa (the spy posing as his wife) resign their
positions and marry. |
