Als het net zich sluit...

Canadian con artist Paul Gregory (George Nader) busts out of a London jail and goes after the loot he's stashed away. Unfortunately, his partner has already decided to keep it all for himself. An accidental death sends Paul on the run, and he finds himself alienated from his underground connections, sought by the police and seemingly without hope. But then he meets a young socialite (Maggie Smith) who cannot resist his allure and decides to help him on his dangerous flight to freedom.
