L'Emprise du crime (1946)
Issue de la grande lignée des Ivers, Martha est la personnalité la plus influente de la ville d'Iverstown. Son mari, Walter O'Neil, est promis à un bel avenir comme avocat, mais dans l'ombre c'est elle qui tient les rênes du couple et qui le pousse à se mettre en avant alors que lui voudrait disparaître. En effet, O'Neil est un alcoolique, incapable d'apaiser sa conscience après qu'il a été témoin d'un meurtre commis par son épouse et qu'il a décidé de taire. Dix-huit ans après cette nuit d'orage où a eu lieu le drame, Sam Masterson, l'ancien fiancé de Martha, revient dans la ville et réveille les démons du passé…
