“NIGHT WATCH”

by Lucille Fletcher

An insomniac heiress, her handsome husband, her nurse, a German maid, psychiatrists, police, and a neighborhood eccentric engage in a thrilling game of who’s out to get whom. An outstanding Broadway success, this ingeniously devised thriller builds steadily in menace and suspense until the final, breath-stopping moment of its unexpected, “twist” ending.
