Ignoring the seer's cryptic assertion that she would "wear white and then black" Pat marries her boss Max Armstead. But then Max dies, poisoned by digitalis, and with his dying words assures Lieutenant Drumm and Perry that Pat was his murderer. Charged with first degree murder, Pat now depends on Perry to restore her freedom.
