"Fate drew them together… and only murder could part them!"

In 1928 the young heiress Martha Ivers tries to flee her surroundings with her friend Sam Masterson. This fails and a conflict arises with her governess Mrs. Ivers. In an ensuing fight, Martha kills Mrs. Ivers. Only Sam and Martha's good stepbrother Walter O'Neil are witnesses. Eighteen years after this event, Sam visits his old hometown and meets the attractive Antonia "Toni" Marachek, who is out on bail. When Toni is arrested again, Sam tries to get her out and has to go to Walter O'Neil. Walter has become an important, but also alcoholic, lawyer and politician and has a forced marriage to the fortunate Martha. However, Sam's old friends are getting more and more of a grip on him, which has far-reaching consequences for everyone involved.
