Frederick Knott's mystery thriller is brought to life on Waukegan's Trapp Auditorium stage! A blind woman, Susy Hendrix, is unknowingly in possession of a heroin-stuffed doll which her husband transported from Canada as a favor to a woman who was murdered soon afterward. Its owner, Harry Roat Junior AND Senior works with small time crooks Mike Talman and Sergeant Carlino to retrieve the doll. They attempt to convince Susy that her husband was involved in the crime and the only way to protect him is to hand over the doll.
