As far as the rest of the world is concerned, mill heiress Deborah Chandler Clark (Ida Lupino) is dead, killed in a freak auto accident. But Deborah is alive, if not too well. Having discovered a horrible truth about her new husband (Stephen McNally), Deborah is now a “woman in hiding,” living in mortal fear that someday her husband will catch up with her again. When a returning GI (Howard Duff) recognizes Deborah, however, she must decide whether or not she can trust him.

VIBE

A chilling descent into paranoia and desperation. This film noir traps you in its suffocating atmosphere of dread, where every shadow could hide a threat and trust is a dangerous gamble. Survival hinges on a razor's edge.
