She begins to think that the rapist had business with Toni, possibly drug related, and that is why Dobbs is so persistent. The day after that, when her husband is away again, Dobbs sneaks into their house and questions Mellie roughly. A body has been found and he claims she killed him, which she denies. Next day at the wedding an uninvited American called Dobbs speaks to her. Then she drives the body to a cliff and tips it into the sea, saying nothing to her jealous husband when he returns. Realising after she has freed herself that he is still in the house, she gets out a shotgun and kills him. When she goes home, he sneaks into the house, ties her up and rapes her. In a shop trying on a dress to wear to a wedding next day, she sees the man spying on her. Mellie, newly married to Toni, an airline navigator who is away at work, sees a strange man get off a bus. Opening with a quotation from Lewis Carroll to suggest that the heroine is like Alice in Wonderland, the film starts on a rainy autumn afternoon in a small resort on the south coast of France.
