SynopsisMarion Bishop, an elderly writer, is dying. Katherine looks after her in a most caring way, while coping with her mentally retarded brother. When Katherine takes some leave, Laura, an experienced nurse, comes to take care of Marion. A series of mysterious phone calls and the appearance of Raymond, Marion’s rapacious nephew, set off a nightmare situation. Deceit, suspicion, blackmail and incriminations are subtly woven into a web of crime which is completed by a dramatic confrontation scene with an ingenious twist.
