Six people are summoned to a remote Caribbean island for the reading of a disfigured chemist's will. The chemist's ghost informs the heirs that one of them was directly responsible for his disfiguration. That night, the chemist's doctor is murdered. The housekeeper is also fatally attacked. Before dying, she explains that her master had created an electronic monster who has been programmed to kill the heirs one by one.
--John Reid, Resident Scholar
