There's something fishy aboard the HMS Battledore, a training ship designed to give young hoodlums a chance at new lives. When Miss Jane Marple comes aboard to investigate, she discovers that someone is training the delinquents to be better thieves instead of good citizens. (official distributor synopsis)
