A young automobile salesman is stopped by two girls, one of whom is extremely beautiful. She leaves behind a notebook filled with her own poems and he is surprised at the despair reflected in her writing. When she calls for the book he learns very little from her. Intrigued, he attempts to discover who she is, and finally learns the truth about her tragic life, involving hate and murder.
