In London, Georges Thomason, his girlfriend Wanda Gershwitz, and their accomplice Ken Pile plan to steal a collection of diamonds worth £13 million. They enlist Wanda's lover Otto West for the heist, but Wanda secretly plans to double-cross both Georges and Otto by having Georges arrested and eliminating Otto after they obtain the jewels. Georges is arrested without knowing who tipped off the police, leaving Ken with the task of killing the elderly witness Eileen Coady before she testifies against Georges. Meanwhile, Wanda seduces George's defense lawyer Archie Leach to find out where Georges hid the diamonds. Otto discovers Wanda's plan and tries to sabotage her efforts.
