'It is a tense and dramatic story of a young man’s relations with his family.
'The central character, Frank Harpur, the crippled younger son of a small-town chemist, is tremendously fond of his elder brother, Al, who has looked after him since he was a boy: When Al marries May Jorggans, a stranger in town, Frank naturally investigates, as best he can, her past life. He does not believe her good enough for Al, and his discoveries seem to prove his belief.
'When Al goes away, Frank finds May seeing a great deal of an old acquaintance of hers, Dr. Kessler. Believing that she is betraying his brother, Frank kills her with poison from the dispensary, and then finds out too late that his opinion of May was all wrong. The play then takes a dramatic turn to a brilliant and unexpected climax.'
