An elegant, Alfred Hitchcock type mystery.
Recently married to Arch Lindor, Fati (Fatima) Rafferty, an attractive young woman living in Florida learns that she has inherited ‘Florestal’, her Mexican-born, murdered great aunt’s sprawling estate in California. Alone, she finds herself increasingly dependent on her elderly great aunt’s former ‘walker’ (escort), Walter Mulday who subtly forces himself into her life. When other wealthy, elderly women with whom he has been associated are subsequently murdered, Fati pleads with Arch to abandon his business obligations in Florida and join her in California. However, when Arch arrives, Fati is dismayed to discover that Walter is as equally adept at deceiving and manipulating him using entirely different means. Strongly suspecting that Walter has selected her as a future victim, she realizes that she will be forced to rely on herself alone if she is to save her life.
