THE EYES OF ANNIE JONES

Taxi driver Tom Lucas murders wealthy Geraldine Wheeler, with whom he had been having an affair. The victim's Aunt Helen gets in touch with Geraldine's brother David and with Annie Jones, a 17-year-old girl from a nearby orphanage, who is said to have powers of extrasensory perception.

It turns out David has been embezzling from the family and hired Lucas to do the killing. A sleepwalking Annie seems to be possessed by the dead woman's spirit, saying things like, "They won't let me rest." When she approaches a spot where the body is buried, David has to prevent Lucas from killing the girl.

The two men have a falling out over money Lucas is still owed. The police become suspicious of him, and Lucas dies after crashing his speeding car. David is arrested, and the body and soul of Geraldine had not been allowed to rest, now found in the car's trunk.

Lucas dies in a car crash, David is arrested, and the body and soul of Geraldine are found in the car's trunk.

The climax resolves the central crimes—Lucas's guilt leads to his own demise, while David's arrest exposes the truth behind the murder and embezzlement. The discovery of Geraldine's body ties together Annie's supernatural visions with the material crime, suggesting the dead will not truly rest until justice is served and giving closure to the story's intertwining of the psychic and criminal.
