A charming psychopath tries to coerce a tennis star into his theory that two strangers can commit the perfect crime by exchanging murders—each killing the other’s most-hated person.
Shadowy tennis courts and swirling vertigo capture a sense of mounting psychological dread. A manic stranger proposes a lethal swap of murders that turns an ordinary encounter into a fatal trap.
