When Doug Croft lost his parents to a drunk driver as a child, his
uncle Harold took him in. Years later, Doug has grown to adulthood
when Harold passes away and leaves everything to his nephew,
including a sizeable property and home at 66 Valdera Street. Doug
now has a house and a good job at the local shipyard. He just needs
someone to share his life with. By chance, he meets
twenty-two-year-old Lurene Stafford, a beautiful, single waitress
at the diner where Doug goes for lunch every day. He's immediately
drawn to her, soon finding himself in love. Although Lurene doesn't
really love Doug in return, she accepts his marriage proposal,
looking for financial security. Before too long, things begin take
a nose - dive for Doug. He loses his shipyard job due to a lay-off
and his tenants move out along with other setbacks. Lurene meets
Steve Hobbs at her work and rents their vacant apartment to him.
Lurene falls hard for Steve not knowing that he is a criminal with
dangerous associates and is planning a major theft. Doug's enviable
life begins to crumble with truly unexpected results.
