- SynopsisThriller. London is shocked by a series of grisly murders, known as the Neck-tie Murders because the victims are found wearing the perpetrator's tie. Hanging around Covent Garden market, despondent former R.A.F. pilot Richard Blaney, husband of one of the victims, is accused of the murders. He goes on the run in a bid to buy enough time to prove his innocence. Meanwhile, the killer realises he has left a clue, a tie pin which could identify him, in the hand of a victim he has stashed in a potato truck, and he desperately attempts to retrieve it before his guilt comes out.
