Beautiful 25-year-old Gabrielle is caught between two men: Charles, a distinguished writer and notorious roué, and Paul, the attractive but unbalanced heir to a family fortune. When she rebuffs his advances, Paul develops a savage, crazy hatred for his rival. Gabrielle will become the mistress of one man, and the wife of the other. One will die; perhaps the other will end his days behind bars. (official distributor synopsis)
