Plot

In the heart of London resides Steven, a man of many talents, charm personified, and a master seducer of women. He possesses an insatiable craving, a profound need for intimacy that teeters on the edge of life and death. Amidst his string of tragic affairs, his quest for the ideal woman remains unquenched. However, his path crosses with Anne, a structure engineer, a woman of strength and resilience, who stands apart from the rest. A captivating allure unfurls between them, hinting at a relationship that could either be their salvation or doom. Steven's life takes a dark turn when he rescues Maria Vaughan, a despondent soul on the brink of suicide, only to ensnare her in his lethal charm. As they cohabit, Steven's true nature unravels when he ends Maria's life, draining her of blood in the solitude of his apartment before discarding her remains in the sea's vast expanse. This gruesome act doesn't go unnoticed, drawing the attention of Inspector Healey, who sets out on a relentless pursuit of this suspect. As Steven navigates this dangerous game of cat and mouse, he finds solace in Anne's love. She falls headfirst into this enigmatic lover's web, oblivious of the looming shadow of his dark secret. Steven's survival hinges precariously on a chilling truth, a secret as deep and treacherous as the crocodile's tears shed over its prey, a reference to the wisdom of Francis Bacon. The plot thickens, spiraling towards a climax where only one can emerge victorious, leaving the audience wondering: Who will it be?
