Plot

In the heart-pounding blend of urban crime and wild-west settings, Chester Morris takes center stage as Humphrey Campbell, a quick-witted private detective with an uncanny knack for finding the lost and the hidden. Having solved his boss Oscar Flack's latest case with a flair, locating a missing girl and marrying her in a surprising twist, Campbell's expertise is once again in high demand. Before he could even sip the champagne of his honeymoon, he is dispatched to Reno, Nevada, the renowned Divorce Capital of the world. His mission? To track down another missing person amidst the chaos of matrimonial fallouts. But, as he descends deeper into the investigation, the case takes a dark turn, revealing a web of kidnappings tied to a spree of bank robberies that's plaguing the city. Navigating a labyrinth of enigmatic blondes, fiery redheads, and elusive brunettes, Campbell finds himself on a collision course with a host of suspicious characters. Each of them, as wary of each other as they are of him, adds layers of intrigue to his mission. All the while, the rising suspicions of the federal authorities and the green-eyed monster tormenting his newlywed bride are threatening to blow his world apart. No Hands on the Clock is a riveting comedic mystery that leaves you teetering on the edge of suspense and laughter, weaving a tapestry of intrigue, humor, and a dash of romance. It's a race against time for Campbell, where every tick of the clock pushes him deeper into a vortex of crime, suspicion, and personal turmoil.
