As the title implies, Earl Derr Biggers' master detective, Charlie Chan, is in Rio de Janeiro to arrest a murderess. Sidney Toler is in top form as Chan who, along with his Number Two Son, finds that the murderess he is after is herself murdered before he can detain her. The clues are in place and the suspects are gathered and Charlie must go to work. The film is breezy and quick to its conclusion, so that within its 62 minute running time, the solution is at hand. In this particular Chan film, the case is neatly presented with that added touch of humor, such as Charlie smoking a laced cigarette.
