The Witching Hour — Plot

Jack Brookfield, a gambler with clairvoyant and hypnotic powers, is able to win at cards through his unique gift.

No one believes Brookfield's protestations that Thorne is innocent of any murderous intent, so Brookfield teams up with retired lawyer Martin Prentice in hopes of saving the young man from the gallows.
