Synopsis
Hazel Gray runs away with Doctor Henry Morgan, but leaves him when she finds out that he is married. Nevertheless, the community ostracizes her, and Hazel is despondent until she falls in love with Phillip Carson, who hires her as a nurse for his sickly, recently remarried mother. Then, however, Hazel discovers that Phillip's mother is also Henry's wife, and when the new Mrs. Morgan dies mysteriously, Hazel is accused of poisoning her. At the trial, Hazel's affair with Henry is used as evidence against her, and even Phillip is convinced that she is a murderess. A guilty verdict seems assured, even though the spirit of the dead woman keeps trying to point out the real murderer, until one of the jurors, the wealthy Gordon Graham, convinces the others to acquit Hazel. The public, however, considers her a murderess until a drug addict shoots Henry, who just before dying confesses to having poisoned his wife. Afterward, with her name cleared, Hazel marries Gordon.
