aka The Stranger Came Home.
"That's not a sweater she's knitting - it's a noose."
A mysterious man turns up at a house party on a large country estate. He turns out to be the owner, Vickers (William Sylvester), who has been missing presumed dead for four years. His return opens old wounds and precipitates a number of murders as he tries to find out who attempted to murder him four years previously.
A low key and talky noir featuring Paulette Godard as Vickers wife. Offers promise but never really delivers on its intreging opening, despite throwing in and then ignoring a number of red herrings.
