Cynical attorney Peter Lambert, choking on a tedious diet of estates and closings, has finally landed a case to challenge his courtroom skills. Jack Boyland has been charged with robbing his business partner, and murder looms as a possibility. Only a corpus delicti is missing. An artist who knows too much, an insurance agent with too many angles and a bearded mystery man shroud the case with questions. A growing mountain of evidence against the double-dealing Boyland gradually dampens Peter's enthusiasm. Complications ensue when Peter becomes romantically involved with an Amish witness. Amidst conflicting desires and obligations, courtroom cunning produces surprising rewards. But personal disappointment prevails until a paradoxical lesson enables Peter to move on.
