À Turin, le minable architecte Garrone, mondain et obsédé sexuel, est assassiné à l'aide d'un gros phallus de pierre. Le commissaire Santamaria, originaire de Rome et peu familier avec la capitale du Piémont, est diligenté sur l'affaire. Il soupçonne d'abord Anna Carla Dosio, riche bourgeoise qui s'ennuie auprès de son industriel de mari : deux domestiques qu'elle venait de renvoyer ont en effet livré à la police un brouillon de lettre où elle semblait souhaiter la mort de Garrone. Le destinataire de la lettre, Massimo Campi, issu d'une grande famille, devient dès lors suspect aussi, d'autant qu'il cache avoir passé le soir du crime avec son petit ami, Lello Riviera, jeune fonctionnaire municipal qui décide de mener sa propre enquête pour le sauver. Santamaria, aidé par son collègue De Palma et à l'occasion par une Anna Carla réjouie de cet intermède pimenté, découvre les différents aspects et quartiers de la ville : snobisme et futilité charmante de certains oisifs, vaste trafic de phallus sculptés, somptueuses villas anciennes sur les collines, jardins de l'austère veuve Inès Tabusso — champ de prostitution nocturne qu'elle voudrait bien lotir —, marché aux puces pittoresque du Balôn... où Lello est tué à son tour. Mis sur la piste par la possibilité dans le dialecte turinois d'un jeu de mots entre « poire » et « pierre », et par les complicités de Garrone avec un employé, voyeur comme lui, du service d'urbanisme de la ville, Santamaria finit par démasquer la coupable : Inès Tabusso, que l'architecte faisait chanter en la menaçant de bloquer son projet de lotissement. Le modeste commissaire et la séduisante Anna Carla peuvent désormais céder à leur attirance mutuelle.

The train is unusually crowded for the time of year: every first-class berth has been booked. The morning after the train's departure from Istanbul, a wealthy American businessman, Ratchett (Richard Widmark), tries to secure Poirot's services for $15,000 since he has received many death threats, but Poirot finds the case of little interest and turns it down.

The film begins with gruff American gangster Dickey pushing his broken-down car along a causeway through rising seawater while his eccentric companion Albie lies inside, bleeding from a gunshot wound after a bungled robbery. Cut off by the unexpected rising tide, they are on the only road to a bleak and remote tidal island (Lindisfarne in Northumberland), where, in a dark castle on a hilltop, a highly neurotic Englishman named George lives with his pretty and promiscuous young French wife Teresa. Dickey disconnects the phone lines and proceeds to hold the two hostage while awaiting further instructions from his underworld boss, the mysterious Katelbach.
