A contemporary adaptation of the celebrated murder mystery made famous by Alfred Hitchcock’s 1954 masterpiece film. Retired English tennis player, Tony, broods over his marriage to wealthy socialite, Margot. When his suspicion uncovers her affair with an American crime-fiction writer, Tony hatches a scheme to have her killed so he can inherit her fortune. His web of deception ensnares lovers and old friends in the throes of a cat-and-mouse game of blackmail, recrimination, and murder.The modern classic keeps chills and thrills running as it races toward its edge-of-your-seat climax.
