Introduction
Brian Hamilton lives in affluent comfort, courtesy of his wife Sheila. However, sometimes money is just not enough. When Sheila finds out that Brian has been having an affair with aspiring actress June she decides to leave. With the money. And the house.
After Brian nearly runs down Gerry Stephens in his car, he invites him in for a drink to recover and it doesn't take long for Gerry to discover the truth of Brian's domestic situation. Gerry suggests a fool-proof method so that Brian can live in the style to which he has become accustomed. Gerry will kill Sheila - the only benefit to him being the satisfaction of having committed the "perfect murder".
All Brian has to do is be well out of the way. But, as Brian soon realises, the easy way out is not always that easy.
