Chick Graham, Barry Nelson, has settled in Puerto Rico after the war to run a small business with his army buddy and brother-in-law, Buster Cox, John Harvey. One evening he returns home to find his wife, Cora Cox Graham, Lynn Ainley, acting as though he is a stranger. In the living room, a man who exactly resembles Graham sits at the table—a double named Bert Rand, Barry Nelson.
