Inspector Evans is surprised to discover that Mrs. Merrowdene, married to one of his neighbours, is the same one who was found innocent, many years before, in a trial for the murder of her former husband. Evans is certain that a murderer is rarely satisfied with a single crime. Will the inspector be able to save his neighbor in danger, or is this just the fantasy of an old retired policeman?
