WHEN A MAN HAS MURDER ON HIS MIND BE SURE YOU DON'T FALL INTO A. . . DEATHTRAP
Sidney Bruhl is a Broadway playwright with a problem. He is all washed up. Once a master of the thriller genre, his latest whodunnit has just been booed off the stage by angry first-nighters, and, as he heads home to East Hampton, he realises he is almost out of options. He can either go on playing with his writer's block; or he can live off his wealthy wife's money.
Of course, what he really needs is another smash hit. As his professional life lies in ruins, he receives, through one of his former drama students. It is a first play, it is brilliant, and the only person who has read it is Sidney, who has always admitted he'd kill for a hit.
Which is precisely what he decides to do. . .
