The Final Trick

Al feels his life his over when his wife coolly dumps him one night in Tiger Bay. In desperation he moves to New York and joins a Bridge club where he forms an unlikely partnership with the autocratic Greta. He comes to regard her as the rudest woman he's ever met. Her arch enemy is the dashingly dishevelled Marco, who urges Al to ditch Greta and bets him he can't find one good thing about her. Al clings to the belief that she must have one redeeming feature. He searches in vain. It's only when Greta dies and mysteriously wills Al her diaries that he gets the chance to delve into her past and unlock her secret.
