A French doctor attempting to stablish a Melbourne practice is summoned by beautiful Gloriana Pennoyer to examine her rich uncle for suspected madness. The doctor and his wife who he introduces to the house as nurse are convinced he is not mad and that his niece is trying to obtain his will falsely. They summon Mark Sinclair who witnesses the uncle's death from poison and his evidence of his niece's careful administration of it. (PB)
