Lors d'une réception chez l'actrice Lottie Marin et l'écrivain Brian Mullen, ses voisins, le producteur Peter Denver fait la connaissance de Nancy Ordway, qui se prétend romancière. Séduit par l'esprit et l'audace de la jeune femme, il autorise celle-ci à occuper, durant l'absence de son épouse Iris, alors en tournée théâtrale, leur magnifique appartement, qui domine Central Park. Or, le jour même de son retour, Iris découvre le cadavre de Nancy, pendu dans la salle de bains. Tout semble accuser Peter, qui s'enfuit pour échapper à une arrestation imminente et mener sa propre enquête. Au cours de ses recherches, il s'aperçoit que la défunte avait eu une liaison avec son ami Brian...
