*Seemingly comfortably ensconced in his charming Connecticut home, Sidney
Bruhl, a successful writer of Broadway thrillers, is struggling to overcome
a "dry" spell which has resulted in a string of failures and a shortage of
funds. A possible break in his fortunes occurs when he receives a script
from a student in the seminar he has been conducting at a nearby college-a
thriller which Sidney recognizes immediately as a potential Broadway hit.
Sidney's plan, which he devises with his wife's help, is to offer
collaboration to the student, an idea which the younger man quickly accepts.
Thereafter suspense mounts steadily as the plot begins to twist and turn
with devilish cleverness, and with such an abundance of thrills and
laughter, that audiences will be held enthralled until the final, startling
moments of the play. *
