In this thrilling whodunit featuring John Wayne, master villain "The Wrecker" dons rubber masks to hide his identity as he works to sabotage the L&R Railroad to eliminate them as competition for a competing airline. When "The Wrecker" murders the railroad's lead engineer, his commercial pilot son Larry Baker (John Wayne) sets out to reveal the villain's true identity - a more difficult task than he expected. Not only are there a whole host of plausible suspects, but "The Wrecker" is a veritable chameleon who can disguise himself as almost anyone. (Echo Bridge Entertainment)

Very well made for its time, although I have to admit that I only saw a TV edit which is shortened from the original almost four hours to one hour and twenty minutes. I think it's for the best because it's quite action-packed, there are good stunt scenes, and the film is quite suspenseful, even though you still feel like it could have ended after half an hour.
