“Her Kisses Couldn't Stop This Killer!”

Marie Windsor is in her element as "Caroline" a scheming, rather greedy creature who finds herself - a bit like JR Ewing 25 years later - shot by a mysterious assailant. The police turn up and discover that there is no shortage of candidates: her husband (John Archer) from whom she has separated and is trying to extort an huge divorce settlement; her assistant (Jil Jarman) whose fiancée she is trying to steal for the fun of it and her business partner (Patric Knowles) whom she treats like dirt... The detective elements of this story are pretty straightforward but it's got some decent performances that keep you hooked for most of the last twenty of this seventy minuter.
