A sinister con man, Roat, and two ex-convicts, Mike and Carlino, are
about to meet their match. They have traced the location of a mysterious
doll, which they are much interested in, to the Greenwich Village
apartment of Sam Hendrix and his blind wife, Susy. Sam had apparently
been persuaded by a strange woman to transport the doll across the
Canadian border, not knowing that sewn inside were several grams of
heroin. When the woman is murdered the situation becomes more urgent.
The con man and his ex-convicts, through a cleverly constructed
deception, convince Susy that the police have implicated Sam in the
woman's murder, and the doll, which she believes is the key to his
innocence, is evidence. She refuses to reveal its location, and with the
help of a young neighbor, figures out she is the victim of a bizarre
charade. But when Roat kills his associates, a deadly game of cat and
mouse ensues between the two. Susy knows the only way to play fair is by
her rules, so when darkness falls she turns off all the lights leaving
both of them to maneuver in the dark until the game ends.. . |
