Trama
Vole è accusato di aver assassinato una ricca vedova. Il testamento dell'uccisa, steso pochi giorni prima della sua morte, costituisce erede di una notevole sostanza il presunto assassino. La situazione di Vole è resa ancora più delicata dall'atteggiamento ambiguo della moglie Christine, una tedesca, ch'egli, inglese, ha incontrato ad Amburgo ed ha sposato durante l'ultima guerra. Il caso di Vole interessa vivamente un celebre avvocato, sir Wilfred Roberts, il quale, convinto dell'innocenza dell'imputato, malgrado la sua età non più giovane e le sue precarle condizioni di salute, ne assume la difesa.
