Plot:
Dr. Rodney Barrett has made enemies over the years. When his wife Irene died three years ago, his father-in-law - the powerful Jode Wetherby - blamed him for his daughter's death as did the local Sheriff Jim Tyloe. Today, Jode's second daughter Nancy is to be buried. Now, Rod Barrett's assistant gets a call saying his young daughter has been buried alive and he has only a few hours to find her before she suffocates. He frantically searches for her in the graveyard but most of the characters will die before the killer's identity is revealed.
