The story

Sandra Carpenter is an American who came to London in order to perform in a show, but is now working as a taxi dancer. She is upset to find out that her friend and fellow dancer, Lucy Barnard, is missing and believed to be the latest victim of the notorious "Poet Killer," who lures victims with personal ads in newspapers, afterwards sending poems to taunt the police. Inspector Harley Temple of Scotland Yard believes the killer to be influenced by the 19th-century French poet Charles Baudelaire.
