The Scarlet Web

What a great surprise this nifty (nifty is the word) British murder mystery turned out to be. Insurance investigator Griffin Jones is duped by a gorgeous blonde and framed for murdering the wife of a rich businessman. His boss, the beautiful Hazel Court, helps hide him from the cops until they can find out who the killer really is. There are all kinds of twists and turns (with a nice touch of wit attached) in this cool thriller that's a definite cut above the average fare. You won't be disappointed.
