Thwarted Heiress and an Enigmatic Visit to Southampton
Barry Gilbert, a jobless 23 year old, hides in a summer Southampton house after his father’s death. He discovers a letter to his supposed mother, meets the owner’s son Jack Ridder, and becomes entangled with Judee Hambidge, Patricia Ridder, and attorney Winslow as a murder case unfolds. Barry suspects Mrs. Kelly and plans defense while Pat bonds with Peg, a showgirl, as clues swirl about a midnight killer and a torn alibi.
