Fragment of Fear

“Murder in Pompeii. Voices in the night. Despair in the gutter. A phantasmagoria of fright!”

Tim Brett (David Hemmings) is a reformed drug addict who has been clean long enough to take a holiday in Italy with his aunt. Then she is murdered, and Tim sets out to find who did it, even though nobody around him seems to want the question asked. Richard C. Sarafian follows him through a search that keeps tightening around his own life, until Tim can no longer be sure how far he can trust his own mind.
