barbados quest (1955)

Aka Murder On Approval.
"I'm depending on you Tom."
An American millionaire purchases a rare stamp in London but immediately suspects the stamp to be counterfeit, and hires detective Tom Martin (Tom Conway) to make inquiries. Martin, assisted by reformed crook Barney Wilson (Michael Balfour), learns the real stamp is in the possession of Lady Hawksley, and it is her dodgy nephew who sold the stamp, but Martin cannot get Lady Hawksley (Grace Arnold) to show him the stamp to confirm that counterfeiting has gone on or not.
Tom Conway reprises his suave detective in this slow-moving yarn.
