When she finally faces the truth about what really happened, it brings her to a dark but freeing moment of reckoning.
Beneath the drive and ambition of Liz Marlowe, a businesswoman haunted by her husband's alleged death five years ago, lies a smoldering guilt that she has concealed from herself and her colleagues. Her struggle to break through this barrier and accept the truth of her past leads to a grim but liberating climax.
Cosmetics executive Liz Marlowe is up for a promotion, but colleagues, friends and even her psychiatrist seem to be blocking it.

CBS Radio Mystery Theater is a radio drama series created by Himan Brown that was broadcast on CBS Radio Network affiliates from 1974 to 1982, and later in the early 2000s was repeated by the NPR satellite feed. In New York City it was not aired by the then all-news WCBS but by its originating station, WOR, which produced and announced it as simply Radio Mystery Theater.
