By Frederick Knott

Sep 26 - Oct 25, 2026

Tony Wendice married his wife Margot for her money; now he plans to murder her for it. Tony arranges the perfect murder – he hires a scoundrel he once knew to strangle Margot, and arranges a brilliant alibi for himself. However, on the night of the planned attack, the plan goes awry and Margot manages to kill her attacker. Momentarily ruffled, Tony soon sees the hitman’s death as an opportunity to have his wife convicted of murder. Can he frame Margot for his twisted crime before Margot and a Scotland Yard inspector reveal his deceit?
