In her flat one evening, Diana Baring is found hovering over the murdered body of Edna Druce. Diana's dress is bloodied, and the murder weapon, a fireplace poker, is sitting at her feet. Both women are actresses in Edna's husband's theater company. Those who know the two know that they did not like each other. Diana does not remember anything about the murder. Based on this evidence, Diana is tried and convicted of murder. After the trial, one of the jurors, Sir John Menier, has second thoughts as to Diana's guilt. A renowned actor with a theater company of his own, Sir John has a few pieces of information concerning the case nagging on his mind. This information includes an empty brandy flask at the scene, and the fact that a man was present at Diana's flat that evening, a man whose name Diana refuses to divulge. Sir John takes it upon himself to discover the truth in an effort to save Diana.
