Malý kluk tragicky zemře při pokusu o únos a pachatel pak s policií i jedinou svědkyní rozjede hru na kočku a myš.

When a ransom bid results in the death of a child, the police have only one lead – the old lady who witnessed the kidnapper using a public phone box. Though her recollection is vague, she volunteers to act as bait for the killer – telling the press that she had seen the kidnapper's face and she waits for him to attack.

După ce o cerere de recompensă duce la moartea unui copil, ucigașul se joacă de-a șoarecele și pisica cu poliția și cu un presupus martor al crimei.
