Sally (Susan Saint James) is the wife of San Fransico Police Commissioner Stewart McMillan (Rock Hudson). She organizes a charity auction. She and her husband are at the auction when a valuable sarcophagus gets stolen. It's an embarrassment for the new commissioner. Then a antique dealer from the auction is killed right after talking to Sally and discovered by their ex-con driver.
It's a movie that serves as the pilot for 'McMillan & Wife'. For a TV production of that era, it's well made. The best aspect is the light fun loving chemistry between Hudson and SSJ. Hudson displays his charming leading man skills. SSJ shows her fun flighty side but keeps her character smart. The action isn't always the best. There is a run through San Franscio that turns into a bicycle chase. It's odd to see two guys in suits going downhill in a couple of 10 speed bikes. It's not the usual police chase. This movie is peppered with odd quirky touches like that.
