Mark Conway; Jones, captain of the City football (soccer) team; Len Marsh, goalkeeper.
Mark Conway, athlete and star player for the soccer team The City, is contacted by by an unnamed blackmailer who will stop at nothing to get Conway to accept his demands. After the captain and goaltender for his team are both murdered Conway has yet to inform the police of the communications between him and the killer, and the ensuing stress takes its toll on his performance with the team. A third murder takes place, this time a police constable, and the police are frustrated by Conway's unwillingness to cooperate.
