An innocent youth accused of murder goes on the run, only to discover he has an unexpected aptitude for crime. A husband's confession to his wife destroys them both...
In these nine twisting stories of violence, suspicion and paranoia from a crime master, ordinary people are driven to desperate ends, the guilty give themselves away and death leaves its indelible taint.
