The plot is based on an actual homicide case from Victorian England. Blanche Fury (Valerie Hobson) is a beautiful and genteel woman, forced into menial domestic service after the death of her parents. After a succession of failed positions, she receives an invitation to become governess for the granddaughter of her rich uncle Simon, whom she has never previously met due to an unspecified dispute between him and her father. On arriving at the impressive country estate she first encounters Philip Thorn (Stewart Granger), whom she mistakes for her cousin Laurence. In fact, he is the illegitimate and only son of the former owner of the estate, Adam Fury. Thorn tells her the legend of the founder of the Fury family, killed in battle, his body defended by the ghost of his pet Barbary ape. The ape of the Furies is said to protect the family and wreak vengeance on anyone who crosses them.

Se présentant comme une enquête, le film commence par la découverte d'une jeune femme assassinée. Petit à petit, on remonte dans le temps pour s'apercevoir que ce crime est somme toute la suite logique d'une philosophie de l'existence où ni le sexe ni la mort ne sont des tabous. Et où la vie est croquée à pleine dents !
