Published by Samuel French Inc

3 Male 2 Female

Years of hardship and poverty have embittered Nora to the point of desperation

Directing her hate against a young defective who killed her son in self defense, Nora invites him to her home, toys with him, and then attempts murder

But her plan is thwarted by the dead son himself, who returns in time to prevent tragedy

Acting as narrator, and unseen by those on stage, he explains the motives of his mother, the shiftlessness of his father, the justice of the detective's act

At the end, a mother weeps over her dead son's photo
