Plot SynopsisA man is accused of murdering his mistress - or was the culprit his disabled wife? Unfaithful husband, Peter Rossiter (Clement McCallin), had an affair with his wife's sister, Honor (Sheila Burrell). Peter’s jealous wife, Liz (Helen Shingler), who is also paralysed due to a car accident, confronts her sister about the affair, a gun is produced and Honor is accidentally killed. Because of his wife’s supposed paralysis, the philandering husband is arrested for Honor’s murder. Peter’s life is spared, however, when his wife confesses that she was miraculously cured. |
