Perry Mason finds himself defending Rosanne Ambrose who is accused of murdering her husband Hubert's business associate, Kirk Cameron. Perry was actually representing her in her divorce from Hubert who, along with Cameron, may have swindled Rosanne and actually murdered a New York client. Rosanne is afraid that she may be unbalanced and seeks advice from her friend, Dr. Jesse Young. She's had memory lapses and has no recollection of having completed her most recent book or supposedly canceling all of the travel arrangements for her upcoming book tour. She comes home to find her husband's desk messed up but she is knocked out. When she recovers, everything is straightened. Dr. Young sends her a couple of prescriptions to help her sleep. Later, she visits the apartment of Kirk Cameron. She leaves after being hit on the head and in a daze. She uses the stairs where she passes out spilling her purse but awakes to find her purse neatly by her and the police at Cameron's apartment saying he committed suicide. In court, it's left to Perry to uncover the truth.
