In late 1950s London, an upper-class archaeologist, Mike Thompson, has trouble getting a taxi, so asks to share one already on hire to a beautiful German woman, Ila Hansen, and although wary she eventually agrees. When by chance he sees her again later, they embark on a torrid love affair which threatens to ruin his long-term relationship with his fiancée, Margaret Goreham, and his career prospects dependent upon her rich, titled uncle.
