A number of mysterious murders occur in the boarding house of Inescort and Mander, whose inhabitants include young lovers Lester and Angel; Cavanagh, a man with a mysterious past; and Bey as the stock East Asian. Lester makes all sorts of wild accusations as he becomes more entrenched in
the mystery novel he is reading. Direction and performances are all adequate, but can do little to overcome the implausibilities in the script.
