Psychiatrist Robert Ordway (Warner Baxter) comes to the aid of former client Jimmy Trotter (Lloyd Bridges), whose new employer, Walter Burns, is found poisoned. Having cleared Jimmy of a similar charge earlier, Ordway investigates. When the Burns family cook is revealed as an impostor, Ordway hypnotizes the housekeeper to unearth a complex web of family and business connections, revolving around the disappearance 30 years earlier of Burns' partner, and the theft of $50,000.

Strange is right! The good doctor gets involved in a highly complex murder of a rich property owner. A close friend (played by lloyd Bridges!) is accused, but there are secrets upon more secrets as the dov gets down to who the main culprit is. Gets VERY convuluted, but it's somewhat fun.

Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars
