One Bright Day
Author(s):
Sigmund Miller
Julian Prescott, head of a prosperous drug company, returns after a long illness to discover that his nationally famous product can be toxic for many people. To disclose this to the public means ruin for the company and most of the people in the town. His daughter and his protege and right-hand man, Lawrence, are lovers, although Lawrence is already married. This is the second line of interest. A scheme to oust Prescott from the company, undertaken by Lawrence and other stockholders, is the third. All three are deftly interwoven, each augmenting the other and all contributing to the mounting tension and suspense of the final moving climactic conclusion, in which the daughter, whom Prescott had reared to live with dignity and courage, compels her father to disclose the danger of the drug to the public.
