- It was one of the strangest days of his life... On a train to New York, Psychiatrist 'Hunt' Bailey (George Brent) becomes acquainted with an old lady called 'Cissie' Bederaux (Olive Blakeney).

When he later learns that 'Cissie' has died mysteriously, Hunt becomes curious about her family and sets out to meet them.
