Plot

In the quaint tourist town of Kanab, Utah, the prestigious Parry Lodge stands as a beacon of sophistication amidst the simplicity of small-town life. Owned by the embittered quadriplegic Edmund Parry and his selfless sister Julia, the lodge teems with a captivating blend of guests and locals, each with their own intriguing narratives. Edmund's bitterness, speculated to stem from a failed romance, adds a layer of tension to the lodge’s atmosphere. One evening, while most of the lodge's inhabitants are engrossed in a dance at Three Lakes, a chilling discovery is made. David Hewson, a Los Angeles lawyer seeking respite, and Beth Dixon, Edmund's secretary and David's romantic interest, stumble upon the lifeless body of the provocative Marsha Morgan by the lake. Marsha, a guest at the lodge, had a web of connections that now becomes a labyrinth of potential suspects. With the responsibility of solving a murder in a community unaccustomed to such brutalities, Sheriff Jess Holmes and Judge Ben Walters find themselves in a complex investigation. Marsha's relations include the muscular summer worker Frankie Pierce, the party-loving guests Louise Miles and Harriet Ames, and the struggling actor Norman Grant, each with their own reasons for crossing paths with the victim. Adding to the intricate puzzle is the arrival of the enigmatic traveler Joseph Felton, who checks into the lodge shortly after Marsha's murder. Suspicion also falls on David, who had a missed date with Marsha, and Edmund, his hatred for women like Marsha well-known. When the murder weapon is discovered by Edmund's inebriated employee Joe, the investigation takes a promising turn, but the information is hazy. As David watches the proceedings with a lawyer's professional eye, he can't shake off the chilling realization - the nature of Marsha's murder indicates that the killer is primed to strike again. As the tension escalates, everyone at the Parry Lodge finds themselves immersed in a deadly game of hide and seek with a murderer in their midst. In this intricate tale of mystery and suspense, 'The Girl in Black Stockings' weaves a web of fear and intrigue that will keep viewers on the edge of their seats, wondering who among the characters will fall next to the unseen predator.
