When waterfront detective Steve Wood receives a cryptic letter, he's drawn into a twisted case involving multiple murders bearing the same signature: victims found with knowing smiles and stab wounds from a narrow blade. As Steve races to uncover the connection between the dead—a mysterious tramp, an architect named Yoval, and a woman named Lenore Yoval living in exclusive Breezeway Terrace—he stumbles into a web of greed and betrayal that threatens to claim more lives. With his secretary Sally at his side and Inspector Flanagan on the case, Steve must piece together the deadly pattern before the killer silences anyone who gets too close to the truth.
