Obsession

In post-war London, a calculating psychiatrist, Dr. Clive Riordan, discovers his wife Storm's ongoing affair with a charming young man named Bill Kronin. Driven by jealousy and a desire for revenge, Riordan meticulously devises a plot to eliminate Bill, utilizing his knowledge of the human mind and a secluded hidden room as his means. As Storm remains unaware of her husband's sinister intentions, Riordan becomes increasingly engrossed in his plan, showing a chilling detachment toward the consequences of his actions. The tension builds as Riordan's cold and methodical demeanor clashes with the growing desperation of his captive, Bill, who struggles to find a way to escape the twisted situation.

To cover his tracks, Riordan skillfully manipulates circumstances to avoid suspicion from both the police and his own inner circle, exhibiting a frightening level of control and precision. Meanwhile, Storm's obliviousness is slowly eroded as subtle clues begin to surface, hinting at her husband's dark obsessions. The investigation takes an unexpected turn when a persistent and intuitive Scotland Yard detective begins to piece together the puzzle, heightening the stakes and putting pressure on Riordan's carefully laid plans. As suspicion mounts and time runs out, the narrative shifts to focus on whether justice will prevail or if Riordan can outwit those pursuing the truth, leaving audiences on edge until the very end.
