The escape of an artist, Korber, who is also a homicidal maniac, from Longwood Parison, alerts and alarms the police, Mr. Horace of the Snapshot, and Miranda, the daughter of the Justice he had sworn to kill. The strangulation of a woman and the disfigurement of some paintings route his activities- which end with his murder and lead on to another killer.... British brouhaha, of indeterminate interest.
