USAF officer Duryea returns to UK from a stateside training class to find his estranged wife living the high life, and is soon framed for her murder. He has 36 hours to prove he didn't do it before being delcared AWOL.

Run of the mill Hammer noir suffers from a dull lead in Duryea, and Albiin is nothing to get excited about, either. Decent supporting performances, but could have been much better.

Note: Character names are from onscreen evidence; IMDb has them garbled a bit.
