Summary:
Philip Marshall is a kind, henpecked accountant who strikes up a friendship with Mary Gray, a young unemployed stenographer who had approached him for work. He gradually finds himself falling in love with her, but keeps the relationship platonic. With his wife suspecting him of having an affair, Philip asks her for a divorce, but she refuses and threatens him with exposure and scandal. When his wife is found dead of an apparent accident, Inspector Huxley of Scotland Yard suspects Marshall of murder but is unable to prove it or establish a motive.
