"I've made a killing."George Radcliffe's (Gary Cooper) account of murder, and the theft of £60,000, leads to the conviction of fellow employee Donald Heath (Ray McAnally), despite some doubts including the fact the money was never found. Martha, Radcliffe's wife Martha (Deborah Kerr) then expresses concern as her husband starts investing money she never knew he had in property. Concerns that come back to haunt her when five years later, she sees a blackmail letter, which accuses him of the crime, and it sets her again wondering...where did his money come from, and could the man she loves be a murderer?
Gritty and shadowy cat and mouse drama, played well by its cast, building the tension and suspense towards the climatic finale.
