When Uncle Charlie went to Santa Rosa, a sleepy small town, to visit his relatives, the "Master of Suspense" took advantage of others to open the prelude to this suspenseful and tense plot. In this Hitchcock-directed thriller, Joseph Cotten's seemingly amiable murderer who has deceived all his loved ones is understated.

Soon after, however, his niece, "Little Charlie" (Teresa Wright) by the same name, begins to suspect that her uncle has a terrible secret from everyone. Then she was finally convinced by the police that this "uncle" was actually the murderer of Merry Widow. As a result, he began to continuously make the girl's nerves tense and almost crazy, making her the next target of the murderer. The murderer planned how to make the girl disappear forever without attracting suspicion and attention from others.
