Peter Duluth, New York’s youngest theatrical producer, is drinking his success and reputation down the drain. Realizing he needs to dry out and come down to Earth, he checks into a posh private sanitarium for “the cure.”

After a few weeks of drying out Dr. Lenz, the director, approaches Duluth asking for help on a problem. Lenz feels there may be an unwanted patient, who is causing disruption that is leading to tension among the patients and the possibility of them relapsing. There have been reports of voices being heard and other disturbing incidents.

Duluth takes on the task with the idea of it being a good distraction while he finishes out his cure. It isn’t just the patients who interest Duluth, there are also members of the staff.

When murder rears its ugly head, Duluth really has some sharp turns to navigate as he sorts out who is really who.

Peter Duluth decide montar una obra de teatro en Broadway. A los avatares propios del mundillo teatral se suman ciertas anormalidades: espectros en los espejos y la muerte de dos actores durante los ensayos. Ninguno de los integrantes del elenco tiene una buena coartada. Queda a cargo del propio Duluth y del médico de la compañía la tarea de echar luz sobre estos misterios.
