Penniless and unable to marry the woman he loves, the financially struggling lawyer Stephen Glennard discovers a way out of his predicaments by selling love letters written to him by deceased author Margaret Aubyn. Glennards psychological anguish as he grapples with his guilt and the repercussions of his actions presents a poignant narrative of human conscience and morality.
