As a woman walks the "last mile" to her execution she remembers back to the incidents that got her framed for murder.
Lionel Atwill makes for quite a charismatic criminologist as he keeps this blackmail thriller moving along swiftly. He begins investigating the murder of a man so he can prevent the execution of a woman on death row, whom he believes has been wrongly convicted.

Just about worth watching.
