00:22 A wave of murders without motive, without clues. Nothing but the mark of the tortoise by ace thriller writer James Hadley Chase.
00:35 You can't afford to let me walk out of here.
00:38 The city is panic stricken.
00:41 Chasing criminals is an occupation that should be left to the police. That's what we're here for.
00:46 Scotland Yard is forced to stand by powerless.
00:49 Somebody warned them beforehand. A woman.
00:53 Who have you been talking to?
00:56 You're looking for Don? Won't you have a seat?
00:58 He'll be back any minute now.
01:00 I've bad news for you. Your friend won't be back.
01:03 Why not?
01:04 Where is he?
01:06 He was a bit too careless. He dared to enter the forbidden house of the green tortoise.
01:11 The tortoise, the mark of death.
01:14 I'm frightened.
01:18 A double barrel duel of blackmail and murder.
01:22 You said when I kill him you'd give me my money.
01:26 What guarantee do I have that he's dead?
01:28 My guarantee.
01:30 How nice. Did you buy an alarm clock?
01:32 Come on, let's get out of here.
01:36 The mark of the tortoise.
01:47 One man fighting a gang of ruthless killers.
01:51 His death will frighten others. That's what matters.
01:56 Thank you.
01:59 All right, now is the time. You know what you have to do, don't you?
02:02 Where's your friend now?
02:04 Just you wait. We'll soon see who's a failure.
02:07 What kind of a job did you give him?
02:09 I want to know.

02:41 Excuse me. I suppose I'll have to.
02:53 We've got a problem. She's double-crossing us.
02:56 You think I'm lying to you? Yes.
03:00 I know you're lying to me. And I want to know why.
03:03 What do you mean, why?
03:06 No! Stop it!
03:09 I want you to escort our guest to the waiting room.
03:12 No one challenges the Mark of the Tortoise.
