Ensconced in his charming Connecticut home, Sidney Bruhl, a successful writer of stage thrillers, is struggling to overcome a dry spell that has resulted in a string of failures and a shortage of funds. A possible break in his fortunes occurs when he receives a script from a student in the seminar he has been conducting at a nearby collegeāa thriller that Sidney immediately recognizes could be a potential Broadway hit.
Sidney's plan, which he devises with his wife's help, is to offer collaboration with the student, an idea that the younger man quickly accepts. Thereafter suspense mounts steadily as the plot begins to twist and turn with devilish cleverness and with such an abundance of thrills and laughter that audiences will be enthralled until the final, startling twists.
