What mystery surrounds the Green Buddha?

Yankee charter pilot Morris inadvertently finds himself in the midst of thieves who have purloined a costly antique jade figure from an exhibit. He tracks the thieves to Battersea, where he rescues the fair Germaine from their unsavory clutches, and the Buddha boosters gain only jaded justice.

    Even though the plot has been around the block once or twice, it's still quite an acceptable crime caper. A small statue is stolen from a museum, but their getaway plane to Glasgow (long appreciated as an international hub for the smuggling of Oriental artefacts, or perhaps because it has a restaurant called "Mr. Wong's" on Sauchiehall St?) under the command of the equally statuesque Wayne Morris ("Holden") crashes. The felon makes good his escape, leaving our hero to try and track down both him and the statue so he can claim the reward to fix his rather battered plane. It's whilst on this trail that he meets, and falls for, pretty mediocre nightclub singer "Vivian" (Mary Germaine) and the two are soon heading for an action-packed denouemen...
