L'Ombre d'un doute

L’histoire

À New York, un certain Spencer quitte sa modeste chambre et échappe à la surveillance de deux personnages postés devant son domicile. D'une cabine téléphonique, il fait envoyer un télégramme à madame Emma Newton, à Santa Rosa, annonçant l'arrivée de l'oncle Charlie. C'est ainsi que Charlie Oakley, alias Spencer, se présente chez sa sœur. Plus âgée que lui, cette dernière est mariée à un caissier de banque, Joseph Newton, dont elle a eu trois enfants. Oncle Charlie offre des cadeaux à toute la famille et joue à la perfection son rôle de « tonton gâteau ». Mais derrière cette façade accueillante se cache un homme mystérieux, qui ne tarde pas à éveiller les soupçons de sa nièce…
