Johnny Stool Pigeon

A US Treasury agent teams up with a convicted criminal to take down a major drug trafficking operation in a deal that could grant the criminal early release from prison.

In 1940s San Francisco, US Treasury agents interrupt a drug deal, killing a sailor but allowing the dealer to escape. They later find the dealer dead, with only an address book left behind. One clue leads them to a shady Canadian trading company in Vancouver. Agent George Morton seeks help from a convict in Alcatraz, Johnny Evans, to infiltrate the underworld and crack the case.
