Dino Steffano (Nigel Davenport) is corporate fraudster who is about to stand trial. He is concerned about the briallian prosecuting barrister Robert Lindley (Geoffrey Keen.)
Dino employs Mike Cochrane (William Russell) to nobble Lindley's reputation by setting up a honey trap by using a woman called Lisa.
Cochrane is happy to ruin Lindley for putting him behind bars once.
Lisa calls in Lindley as she has information that could help convict Dino. It would be a way for Cochrane to get uncompromising photos of Lindley with Lisa.
Just to make things more convoluted, Lindley's daughter was helping Dino with the fraud and she has the hots for him. Dino also plans to double cross Cochrane and makes sure he is not position to talk. Later it emerges that Lisa is Dino's wife.
The biggest weakness is that Dino thinks that there are no other prosecuting barristers who could take on the case.
The plan stretched credulity and there is so much talking after the initial set up. It's a B movie with more chat than action.
Unusually Lindley seems to be investigating the case when he should had bought in the police.
