Tout est paisible et rangé dans le petit village d'Ipswich. Les gens sont aimables, discrets, se saluent entre eux et rien d'étrange ne se produit jamais. Alors le jour où les corps de cinq femmes assassinées sont retrouvés dans la rue London Road, le désarroi s'installe dans la communauté. Qui a pu commettre ce crime ? Le meurtrier est-il l'un d'entre eux ? Chaque citoyen devient alors suspicieux et nerveux. La rue entière est une scène de crime scrutée à la loupe par les yeux des curieux. Chacun y va de sa théorie et de ses hypothèses, mais le vrai meurtrier sera-t-il démasqué ?

Based on a true story, the film is set in the late 19th century. Lord Tichborne, the ninth richest nobleman in England, disappears after a South American shipwreck. Some years later his erudite Afro-English valet, Bogle, is sent to investigate rumors that Tichborne survived and settled in Australia. An alcoholic ruffian answers Bogle's inquiries claiming to be the lost heir. Bogle suspects fraud, but conspires with the claimant to split the inheritance should the latter successfully pass himself off to friends, family and the courts. As the claimant returns to England to continue his charade, enough people confirm his identity to make both the claimant and Bogle believe that he just might be the rightful heir after all.

The plot, reminiscent of the Alfred Hitchcock film Strangers on a Train, focuses on two disparate characters. Conservative Henry Bell has been eased out of his job by condescending Bruce Tick, while wealthy and wildly eccentric Karen Knightly has been abandoned by her lover Anthony Staxton-Billing, who opted to return to his wife Imogen. Both are intent on committing suicide by leaping from the Tower Bridge in London. When neither succeeds, they strike a bargain whereby each agrees to exact revenge on behalf of the other, although Henry is less enthusiastic about the plan.
