Summaries

A rich skinflint, hated by his common wife (a previous Geisha) and his nephew, tries to follow his selfish desires and keep his wealth of diamonds safe; while there are separate plots being formed to kill him for his money: one by his wife and her ex-lover, and the other by his stepdaughter and the nephew. Gradually things get out of control and so everybody turns against everybody else.—Ehsan
