Bag om Priscilla

Priscilla, a young, wealthy Chicago widow and Tim, a poor Alabama soldier, will fall in love. This budding love affair has to wait, however, until Priscilla has proof that her attorney husband is dead. This gripping story about two individuals from different backgrounds brought together by bizarre events. Priscilla, beautiful, reared in wealth married in her teens to an older attorney, whose law practice, she found out later, was defending the social scum of the 1920s, crooked politicians, fight promoters and bank robbers. Tim comes from a hard-working, poor northeast Alabama farming folk. He is handsome and bright. As the plot unfolds, Priscilla's attorney husband is mysteriously killed and his body is never recovered. The suspected killers are found by the police in the Arizona desert. A gun battle with police ensues and one suspected killer dies. The other suspect is captured, but escapes and is recaptured two time before he is brought to trial. From the first meeting, Priscilla and Tim are attracted to each other. On one occasion, Priscilla gives Tim some law journals to read. In one of them, Tim finds the plans for a bank robbery. He begins to investigate the recent past and finds condemning answers. Tim is falling more deeply in love. Out of respect for her station in life, he keeps his tender feeling from Priscilla. The ending is a gripper!
