Escaped convict Rod Collins (Clu Gulager) heads for the home of his pen pal, the niece of Margaret Lowen (Katherine Squire). Fortunately for the police, Rod has left his pen pal's picture and letters back in his cell, enabling them to contact Margaret and ask her assistance in bringing the fugitive to justice. But once Rod shows up at Margaret's doorstep and insists upon meeting her niece, the situation takes an unexpected turn. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi
