Desperate Cargo
“DEATH STRIKES...a mile above the Caribbean...as air piracy terrorizes the new Spanish Main!”
When two showgirls decide to leave South America and head for home, they sweet talk the purser of a clipper ship into giving them berths. In the course of the voyage, a band of thieves attempts to take over the ship and make off with its cash cargo. The heroic purser has other ideas and weighs in to save the day.
