Lindsay Wagner is a troubled woman who returns home after spending six years in a fashionable mental clinic; Gerald McRaney is her loving husband whose heart attack triggered her homecoming; Barbara Babcock is the strong-willed housekeeper who has become second mother to her children. Hostility and suspicion greet the former patient the minute she steps through the door, and all, including her brother and sister-in-law, expect her to fall apart at any moment in this version of Zoa Sherburne's book, "A Stranger in the House" (the original title of the film), which was adapted by Ken Trevey. The plot is a variation on Olivia de Havilland's 1972 TV-movie, "The Screaming Woman".
