Une jeune employée de bureau, Ann Walton, ne cesse de fuir, tel un être traqué. Violée, à la veille de son mariage, elle sillonne les routes sans but précis. Une entorse à la cheville la cloue bientôt au sol et lui fait perdre connaissance. Elle est alors recueillie par un pasteur, Bruce Ferguson, qui tente de lui redonner goût à la vie. Mais, lors d'un bal de campagne, un homme l'invite à danser et cherche à l'embrasser. Elle croit revoir son agresseur d'autrefois et, à l'aide d'une clef anglaise, lui assène de terribles coups. Récupérée, elle est arrêtée. Le shérif, Charlie Hanlon, raconte à Ferguson le dur passé d'Ann. Le pasteur prend, dès lors, la défense de la jeune femme devant le juge d'instruction et se porte garant de son rétablissement psychologique.
