Ben Arkwright and (Cedric) Ricky Gallen are partners in the firm of Arkwright and Gallen; however, Ricky is having an affair with Ben's wife, Anna. Anna talks Ricky into killing her alcoholic husband, but things do not go according to plan.
The Monthly Film Bulletin wrote: "Zena Walker is no Bette Davis, but then director Robert Lynn is no William Wyler. None the less, she puts up an intelligent display of growing malevolence in this absurdly compelling, up-dated Warners-type melodrama, and is virtually the film's only raison d'étre. Actors like Basil Henson and Anthony Dawson haven't the resource to subdue the stilted, stereotyped dialogue, and the direction only rises above the mediocre in two chillingly staged murders, and one or two nicely composed shots of Zena Walker machinating."[3]
