Hideaway Girl

Summary As a woman in a wedding gown flees town in a stolen car, Detective Dixon learns that Count de Montaigne's gift to his bride, a valuable necklace, was stolen from his wedding reception. Notorious thief "Lady Jane" is believed responsible for the crime. At a gas station, the mysterious woman meets man-about-town Michael Winslow and drops him off at his yacht club. Reporters assume that Michael has secretly married when they find a wedding gown in the woman's suitcase, and inside the club, they are introduced as husband and wife. Using the alias Belinda Hipplewaite, the woman dances with Michael in the moonlight, then flees. Meanwhile, the count, who is really a crook called Jake, arrives in search of the jewel thief and finds his stolen car. As Jake's men chase her, Belinda flees in a boat. Michael's fiancee Muriel Courtney then arrives and insists on going on his yacht "Belinda," where Michael discovers Belinda asleep. When Michael's friends come aboard and reveal his "marriage," Muriel threatens to sue for breach of promise. Meanwhile, Belinda poses as the yacht's stewardess. When Dixon boards the yacht in search of Lady Jane, Belinda identifies herself as Mrs. Winslow and she and Michael are forced to sleep in the same cabin. As they lie awake, Michael tells Belinda he doesn't love Muriel and proposes, but when he finds the necklace hidden in Belinda's room, he accuses her of stealing it. Dixon then uses the necklace as bait to get Jake on board, and Jake realizes that Muriel, a former moll, is Lady Jane. Jake admits that he was going to marry Belinda, whose real name is Toni Ainsworth, because he believed she had money. Belinda confesses that she was marrying him for the same reason, but fled the reception in order to escape a loveless marriage. After Dixon arrests Jake and Muriel, Michael and his new fiancee kiss.

2 für alle Fälle - Manche mögen Mord

2 für alle Fälle - Manche mögen Mord

There is not much that can be used to lure Husum ex-Commissioner Piet Becker out from behind the dike. But when his music combo beckons a few appearances, the northern lights even embark on a journey into the deepest Harz: His half-brother and band bassist Hannes has the lead singer Piet, the guitarist Paula and the drummer Rüdiger a three-day engagement in a small, fine one Spa mediated. However, shortly after the arrival it turns out that the music is actually playing somewhere else: a "professional colleague" of the notorious marriage swindler Hannes was found dead. The circumstances are still unclear, but since the deceased - just like Hannes - had chosen the fun-loving millionaire Anette Bistrop as a generous victim, this could come under suspicion of murder as the cause of death. Apart from that, Anette has been threatened by a stranger for some time. Both Hannes and her slick private secretary try to convince Anette to take a bodyguard - too late: the next day her body is found. This time it's clearly murder - and there is only one possible prime suspect: her windy lover with the long criminal record. Piet knows, of course, that his half-brother is a boiled rascal, but by no means a murderer. While the local police are eagerly collecting evidence against Hannes, Piet starts investigations on his own, actively supported by Paula and Rüdiger. And with cunning, talent for combination and dry humor, the rock trio succeeds in convicting the real culprits.
