When he discovers a new wonder drug that gives new vitality and youth to people suffering from heart disease, the future holds fame and fortune-until his conniving boss, Charles McLogen, threatens Martin with blackmail that will compromise Mavis's reputation. Martin believes he has no choice but to protect his wife and let his boss take full credit for the discovery. McLogen embraces the accolades that follow, but the real results of taking credit are wholly unexpected.
