The story

In London, an unidentified serial killer targets female models, strangling each woman and marking the forehead with the number of the victim. Scotland Yard detectives Jack Holbourne and Harry Morgan are assigned to investigate and discover that all of the women had recently appeared in the pornographic magazine Playbirds [a real magazine, published by producer Sullivan]. Four suspects are identified: the magazine's publisher, Harry Dougan; photographer Terry Day; a street preacher called Hern; and anti-pornography campaigner George Ransome MP.
