Synopsis:
Unemployed journalist Guy Foster (Peter Barkworth) returns home and is met by his wife Melissa (Moira Redmond) and their friends Paula (Joan Benham) and Felix (Ronald Fraser) Hepburn waiting to go out to a party. Feeling exhausted Guy refuses to go, instead opting for a quiet night in writing his novel. Later that evening Guy receives a mysterious phone call from his wife imploring him to meet up with her. Reluctantly Guy agrees, however, he has difficulty finding the address that Melissa has given him. He stops at a parked police car to ask directions and is shocked to find out that the police have discovered the body of a woman.
Shock turns to horror when the dead woman turns out to be his wife. The more the police investigate the murder the more the finger of suspicion points at Guy.
