No Trace on AllMovie

Hugh Sinclair portrays a successful and highly respected British author/broadcaster. What the public doesn't know about his past, however, can hurt him. When a slimy blackmailer shows up, threatening to wreck Sinclair's above-board reputation, the Great Man sees no other recourse but murder. But crime begets crime in this shadowy meller, right up to the twist ending. Though it doesn't really stick to the ribs, No Trace is smartly plotted and tidily directed.
