When Andre Morestan serves as a juror, he is entranced by the woman on trial for murdering her lover. Andre's fellow jurors want to hang her.

Because Natalie has no home, Andre offers her shelter and employment. He tells his wife that Natalie is the daughter of a former classmate. Andre's teenage son, Pierre, however, suspects his father is sleeping with Natalie. Then Pierre winds up falling for the mysterious woman himself! Later, Andre discovers that someone has stolen money from his savings, and he wonders whether Natalie really is guilty after all. [More]
