A young nurse who's just started working at a public clinic begins to suspect that a comatose young man may possess the powers of psychokinesis.

After the shocking bathtub death of his mother and her lover, the sinister Patrick lays comatose in a small private hospital, his only action being his involuntary spitting. When a pretty young nurse, just separated from her husband, begins work at the hospital, she senses that Patrick is communicating with her, and he seems to be using his psychic powers to manipulate events in her life.—R Lindsay
